Sweet more riding out this way. I didn't even realize there was a new park out there. How did you even come across this info anyway of a new park? Keep doing what you do and keep posting new great stuff.
I've joined every local trail org discussion page I can find, and I'm constantly watching for any hint of something new. A mention of a trail name I've not heard before; a photo that shows a hill or valley from a new angle; a picture of an excavator that I can localize by the mountain background, etc. I watch for Strava tracks, and as soon as I think I can get wheels on the trail without being an asshole, I'm making plans to ride it.
It's actually pretty easy, but it won't seem that way as you hit the mile of construction between SR 73 and the trails. The route that will be the "official route" to the "real trailhead" isn't open yet. I'll have a web page ready in a couple of days, but meantime, here's the route: The southern entry is reached via Lewiston Road south of White Hills. Driving south past White Hills, turn off SR 73 to the right, across from Pole Canyon Blvd. The pavement ends quickly. Some riders park here and pedal the rest of the way. Stay westbound on dirt road, generally keeping straight as you pass through a long area of construction. Keep straight when the main dirt road veers to the left (don't follow the painted arrow on the big rock). As you reach the base of the hill, make a right turn and go north a short distance, turning right into the parking area. The entry trail is across from where you pulled into parking.

Great video! How easy is it to find the parking lot?

Much appreciated!! Planning on hitting it tomorrow.
