Very pleasant hike. Nice to get back on the trails after a long hiatus. The description is wrong though, there's 500 feet elevation gain on the Canyon Vista Trail. There's also a section were you drop those 500ft in about a mile, so it is quite steep. I'm glad I started the loop in the other direction or I would've gone back. Midway to the hike you get to the Vista of the canyon which is pretty awesome.

The water was nice and cold after the hike. There's a section in the park were you can swim but I just put my feet in to cool down.
