seems like all the hundreds of comments have been deleated. Just restoring some history here . This was a notorious and WILD anything goes hook up place for decades. In 2006 there was a major crack down on cruisers that lasted for two years. It was regular and severe, resulting in many arrests and continual harrasment. The scene practically disappeared. The past year there has been some return at a very subdued level. The place is still watched by local and county cops but not to the extreme that it recently was. You can hook up, but be careful!

I have been going here since I was in my 20's and I'm now 46 and always got lucky with some one in their 20's and 30"s. I'm on vacation and was just up there 06/08/2009 and got lucky once with a 29 yr. old and a 33 yr. old. I could have had a third encounter, but it creeped me out. He looked like he was in 8th or 9th grade, so I skipped him.

Never was very cruisey as Washington rock area in South mountain nearby. But since that area dried up, this and other park sections along Pleasant valley way see more action. Worth checking out.
