Pictures from the top of Thunderbird Park in Beautiful North Glendale

This is Thunderbird Park; it is located just north of Top of the Ranch and Arrowhead Lakes on 59th Ave. and Pinnacle Peak in beautiful north Glendale. This scenic mountain park attracts hikers, joggers, mountain bikers, horseback trail riders, and anyone looking to spend a little time in nature sight seeing. There are picnic areas located throughout the park so you can bring the whole family and enjoy the natural surroundings.

These pictures were taken at the top of one of the three peaks, above is the north view and the bottom picture is of the south view (Arrowhead Lakes). There are two entrances into the park, one is on 59th Ave, just north of Deer Valley Rd. (This entrance is temporarily closed until January 17th due to road construction, when completed, 59th Ave will be wider to accommodate vehicle traffic and cyclists. In addition to the new improved road, a pass over bridge will be built over 59th Ave. for easier access to all three peaks). The other entrance is located on 67th Ave., directly across from Mountain Ridge High School.

Thunderbird Park is just one of the many attractions that create pride of ownership in this beautiful Arrowhead Ranch community. The neighborhoods surrounding the park are all pristine, with manicured landscape and well maintained homes, making it one of the most coveted areas in Arizona. Single family homes range from the mid $200,000 to well over a million, so this is a diverse area with one thing in common, residence striving for a safe, clean and organized community.

Loved the photos.  Great job of promoting Glendale; keep up the good work. 

Thanks Tom, I've had my fair share of snow when I lived in Michigan, Virginia and West Virginia. I'm loving it in the Valley of the Sun.

Thank you Marsha, It's easy to do, because I truly believe that it's a great place to live.

Vinnie, Those pictures are absolutely beautiful!  And the homes are priced low, it must be a lovely area to live.  Thank you for sharing that.

Well, thank you Carole, this really is a beautiful area, I'm a hiker-runner myself, so I try to hit the trail at least 4 times a week. It's great excerise and it give me time to think and release some stress. Happy New Year.
