Description

Smooth easy trail loop around the TMP western trails, west of Golden Gate Mountain. Used as an alternative parallel to Golden Gate Trail. There are lots of social trails that branch off from this section. No worries taking any of them, they all lead to the same place. Anything that branches off east have to potential to make their way to Golden Gate Trail.

Ironwood connects the Tucson Saguaro Estates neighborhood to W Gates Pass Rd.
