    Beautiful Water

    Great TR. Thanks for sharing. It makes me want to go back. Maybe next summer. I think summer is the best time to be down there since you spend so much time in the water.

    I wish the water had been that clear when I was there last summer. How was the air temperature? Was Navajo falls flowing full, or was the piece in the middle dry? How hard was it to get a helicopter ride out (I ask purely for reference purposes)?

    Bummer about your pack. You can't say we didn't warn you. I may put a wrist rocket on my equipment list for the next time I head down there. Then again that may put me on their hit list. Freaking squirrel mafia.

    It's pretty much unanimous among my friends; we will never pay to have the horses haul our packs out again (I was too proud/cheap and hauled out my own pack). Even though it's not that expensive, it just takes too long for them to catch up. After leaving the campground at 4AM and getting to the hilltop around 9AM we ended up sitting in the hot sun 'till noon waiting for our gear. Then they lost one girl's tent poles and somebody's pad. Still, it was kinda fun to mail some letters and know they went out in a pack train.
    Remember kids, don't try this at home. Try it at someone else's home.

    So, they tried to get you to turn around, from fire damage? I would have gone back to that place and told them to shove it.

    Anyways, I'm glad you made it down there. It's gorgeous. Did Karl tell you about any hidden "secrets" in the waterfall pools?

    I see some good candidates for the image bar here.









    and finally...

    Yeah I think I am pretty much sold on going in the summer time. It makes that water soooo inviting plus you can

    The people at the Hualapai Lodge in Peach Springs told us that the fire had knocked out the power to the village in Havasupai Canyon. Then they called the tribal police and said that the road was blocked. Truth was that nobody really knew because the phones were out in the canyon until Sunday. The Havasupai tribe decided to let the campers come down since they don

    How long is the backpacking trip into the falls? And also how far of a drive is it down there from SLC?

    10 to 11 hours drive from SLC to trailhead (Hilltop)


    Trail Mileage

    Hilltop to Village 8 miles

    Village to Campgrounds 2 miles

    Campgrounds to Beaver Falls 3 miles

    Beaver Falls to Colorado River 5 miles

    Navajo Falls halfway between village and campground. Havasu Falls at the entrance to the campground and Mooney Falls right were the campground ends.

    No part of it was dry, I guess it was flowing full.

    Sheesh quite a drive, wonder if an airplane ride to St George would be faster?

    PS: Thanks for digging it up for me, should have googled it myself

    I don't think it's that far up from Havasu Falls. I'd guess it's a half mile up maybe, but I'm terrible at judging distance when I'm hiking.

    For those of you following along at home, Navajo Falls is kinda tucked away on the west side of the trail down in some trees. What keeps people away is the fallen tree you have to walk over to get across the creek. IMHO it's the prettiest of the three major falls, and it's not nearly as busy as Havasu and Mooney.

    Well, it was flowing full for normal conditions. From what I'm told it usually has a dry patch in the middle, but when I went the flow was heavier due to a storm. The falls were flowing along the entire wall.

    If you're coming from SLC an airplane ride to Vegas or Kingman would be faster since you go through both of those cities. I'd suggest Vegas since flights and car rentals would probably be cheaper. The drive is brutal, but after Vegas the scenery keeps changing so the driving is more engaging (no more freeway except a short stretch in Kingman).
    Remember kids, don't try this at home. Try it at someone else's home.

    Yeah a half mile above Havasu sounds right. There is now a bridge to cross the creek to get to Navajo. It is made of two large trees that have boards nailed to them. It was very stable (sorry no pictures). I was told it was built just this year. Navajo was my favorite because it had less people (although in a smaller area) and it was the first place I got into the water. And all of the caves and the fact that it is this giant wall blocking the canyon that has water flowing down it a multiple spots, beautiful.

    Hey I am going to havasupai next month and I plan on sleeping in my hammock the whole time because it will be easier, lighter, and more convenient. I'm just wondering if you think it would be a good place to set a hammock up, I saw lots of trees in your pictures but couldn't tell If I would be a good place. Are the camp sights among trees or in a clearing near them or what? Also, do you thing the natives will be offended if I do it, a fast answer would be appreciated. Thanks, Levi.

    Depending on which campsites are available there are great spots for hammocks. Even since the flood a few years back. You'll want to wear insect repellent if you sleep in the open. I get bitten by no-see-ums every time I'm there. The natives have never said anything to me or others in my groups about hammocks being a problem. Douse your head in bug juice at bed time. Make sure you are comfortable spending all night in a hammock or your trip will be miserable. Take a lightweight tarp that you can stretch between the trees above your hammock in case you get rained on. I only take naps in my hammock and still take my sleeping pad, a cotton flat sheet sewn into a sleeping bag liner, and a fleece blanket, and I sleep in an ultralight tent. I've actually had some cold nights there, even in June. Either way. Just be prepared for rain, bugs, and temps in the 50's.
