Cooper Canyon Backpacking Trip

Nine Scouts and four leaders participated. They started at Cloudburst Summit in the San Gabriel Mountains, near Mt. Waterman, and then took the Pacific Crest Trail to Cooper Canyon Trail Camp. After setting up camp, they hiked to the Cooper Canyon Waterfall. They then headed back to camp to play some games, filter water and make dinner. The following morning they struck camp, worked on some rank requirements and then hiked back up. The hike totaled 9 miles on the trail and had an elevation gain of about 1,300 feet.
