Join us for a chill 5-mile round trip hike at Cooper Canyon! We’ll meet in front of the Starbucks near Leavey Library at 7:00 am for a 1.5 hour drive up, and then start hiking! The hike is pretty short with a very shallow elevation change. We’ll chill at the falls for lunch and maybe swim (if there’s enough water) before we head back! We’re looking for two participant drivers!
