I don't have any trail names - these are just small trails frequented by locals and explorers you won't find write-ups for online. There are some county roads you can see outside of town on Google Maps, mostly but not exclusively east and southeast of town. There are many trails which aren't on maps which fork from the ones you do see on maps.
The best description I can give is that they're mostly easy but scenic with all the aforementioned features - valleys, creeks, old mining structures, etc.

"I'd go, especially if the camping is dispersed."
There is seemingly infinite dispersed campsites around here. During the summer there's typically people at the closer-to-town more obvious and accessible campsites, but as soon as you get down some trails there's plenty of options.

"The only catch with me is I can only do Monday's, Tuesday's and Wednesday's which are my normal weekend."
I can't do that now except for after I get off at 5, but will likely be quitting my job soon and would likely have a chance to go on these days if I'm unemployed for a bit, I'll let you know if that happens.
