About This Trail: This park was first settled in 1865 by James and Mary Bond, whose home can still be found in the park. By 1913 another couple, Paul and Anna Lee White had started buying land in the area to use as a commercial cattle ranch. In the late 1960's and early 70's, Anna Lee White donated much of the land to open space, and in 1975 the park was named after her husband, Paul. Today the park has over 19 miles of trails, which is big enough that you never feel crowded.
