The Arroyos & Foothills Conservancy is in the last stages of fundraising to purchase lower Millard Canyon, and to show why it’s worth preserving, they’re leading hikes over the next two Saturdays.
The hikes, on Sat., Nov. 17 and Sat., Nov. 24, start at 9 AM. Meet at the Millard campground parking lot — drive north on Fair Oaks, left on West Loma Alta Drive, and turn right at Chaney Trail. Follow Chaney Trail all the way over the top and down again to the parking lot. As an added incentive, there will be pastries by Euro Pane provided.
Wear hiking boots, long-sleeved shirt and pants, and bring water. Dogs aren’t allowed. The route is less than a mile and a half, but somewhat rugged with some boulder hopping. There are patches of poison oak. There may be rattlesnakes.
The Conservancy says that :”If we can match a $20,000 commitment by the current landowner by the end of November, our $675,000 goal will be accomplished.” To donate to save MIllard Canyon, click here.
