The Funky monkeys (us) will first stroll up mount Waterman (Watch out for the fairies), gazing upon the stunning landscape of Los Angeles National Forrest. We’ll then roll around in the snow an throw snowballs at our least favorite participant. When we get cold and tired we’ll scurry down the mountain and jump in an even colder creek at Monkey Canyon! Then we’ll monkey on home.
