11:00 AM - Meet at the main parking lot, Canyon Meadow Staging Area. Please plan ahead and come early if possible since the parking can get a little crazy. There is also an overflow parking lot but is a bit further away. (If you happen to miss us in the main parking lot, simply make your way to the Old Church Picnic Area.)
From the parking lot, it is a 15 MINUTE WALK to the picnic site, Old Church. I'll guide everyone there but you can also follow the map. The site is shady with access to chemical toilets.
