Beat the heat with a great 5 mile RT tour of Whitney Canyon.

There is almost no gain on this trail, but you will see interesting sites such as the sulphur springs, an intermittent stream which will probably by dry in August, and a (dry) waterfall. You will be done before lunch, but bring lots of water, snacks, and wear good shoes with tread! Bring your camera. We have often seen deer in this canyon! Meet at the trail head at 8:00 for an 8:15 departure.http://photos4.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/e/8/5/a/event_77939482.jpeg
