How dumb is it to do Santa Elena Canyon in the late afternoon in early July?

For context, we have folks from SW Louisiana, where the heat indexes are 102 at 9 am, lol, and everyone is pretty fit and used to being outside here, with teenagers running XC in the even higher heats later in the day, here. Looks like the temps will be below 100 when we're there, and we're planning on the obvious extra water, etc, even with fairly high heat tolerances. Don't want to miss out on much, since we have only a short time in the park, and figured the canyon would at least give some shade. Thanks
