Our party rides up this canyon to tho 'Hermitage' for the feature meal of the entiro trip, a 'trout and chicken dinner.' There Is no hasto. Wo have time not only for dinner but to loungo on tho big rustic veranda, drinking deep of the mountain air and watching watch-ing the evening shadows darken tho canyon walls overhead."
