After the Gould Mine Loop Trail I felt like I had time for a short trail before heading home. I decided to do the Valley View Trail for a .8 mile round trip. Nice easy walk with great views of Avra valley and to the north of Picacho and Newman Peaks. Twin Peaks minus one is also in view. This is one of those hikes probably best done around sunset. The road to the trail head closes at Sunset and opens again at sunrise so I'm not sure how that will work though.
