Coyote Canyon

March 18th 2018

Description

This is a day trip. Bring lunch. 

It's flower season too so bring your camera. 

This is a beginners trip.  Nothing crazy hard.  There will be a water crossing.

We'll leave Christmas Circle park prior to 10 AM and head for Coyote Canyon to have lunch, then explore the canyon. If you're late, refer to the Anza Borrega State park map and make your way into Coyote Canyon. On the way back to Borrego Springs later in the day we'll check out the iron sculptures.
