No problem, go to the old penitentiary there is a dirt lot at the trail head. There is a website ridges to rivers that has a map of all the trails in the foothills area.
Definitely do Table Rock, but sneak out to Cervidae if you can. In my experience, off-trail adds a whole other degree of difficulty. Cervidae can't be classified as fully off-trail, but it's closer than Table Rock. It should get you a better idea of what you're looking at in season.
