There is a total of about 9 miles of hiking trails in this park, We were thinking we may be able to cover all trails in one hike, but it ended up raining on us when we were about to finish our first and biggest loop. The Loop consisted of the following Trails, and some unnamed connecting trails.
1. Desperado Trail
2. North Star Trail
3. Saguaro Loop
Total of this large loop is 5.1 miles.
Hike were pretty nice and the Salt bushes were blooming at the time, so they added a nice splash of yellow to some of the hillsides. The connecting trails did seem to fade a bit, so needed to keep an eye there.

Also a pretty good scenic viewpoint at the end of the North Star Trail.

All in all a fairly nice place, but hard to compete with the Trails that have free access just up the road.
Seems like there isn't much as far as GPS routes posted to this park, so I'll post my loop here.
