Scott:

I'm not sure if any of the responses address you original question so I'll
take a shot at it.

I'll assume you are going through town on 10 and that you don't want to
stray too far from the highway.

Here are some ideas:

There are two on the SW side that are close to each other and quite easy to
get to.

On the SE side these are fairly easy although a little more spread out.

There is a cluster around ASU.  You could have lunch near Sneaky Peak, but
'A' mountain is a climb.  These might take more time.

There are a few around the zoo area. I think each of these involve a short
walk, but might be a good break.  You can park at the same spot for the
second & third one.

If you find the right coordinates for this one, you won't be far from the
highway in Tempe.

This ought to give you some ideas.

Good Luck,
