Guided Millard Canyon Hike on Saturday

The Arroyos & Foothills Conservancy will be hosting a docent-led hike on Saturday in the Millard Canyon parcel the non-profit is raising funds to purchase.

The 13 acre-lot runs along a stream and is a valuable wildlife resource. The group has been fundraising to get the money to do it for the last six months.

The details on the hike are listed below:

WHAT: Hike Millard Canyon

WHEN: Saturday, July 21, at 8:30 a.m.

WHERE: Meet at the Millard Canyon parking lot in Altadena.

DIRECTIONS: Take the 210 to the Lincoln Avenue exit. Go north on Lincoln Avenue. Turn right at Loma Alta Drive. Turn left at Chaney Trail (there's a flashing yellow light). Follow Chaney Trail past Nuccio's Nursery. Chaney Trail dead ends in the parking lot.

WHAT TO WEAR/BRING: We strongly recommend hiking boots, long pants and long sleeves, a hat, and water. You may also find a walking stick useful in crossing Millard Creek.
