4th of July Weekend

Havasupai Hike

Our hike started at 2am on Friday morning and ended at 10pm on Saturday night. It was quick but so much fun. Spencer and I met Jacob and his friends, Stacy, Alane, Hyeku, and Cris for the trip. The early morning hike was brutal due to our lack of sleep but we all napped for a bit when we got to camp. Then we hit the falls!

Havasu Falls

First we went to Havasu Falls . The cold water and mist woke us up for sure. Havasu plunges 100 feet into blue-green pools. After lunch back at camp we went to play on Navajo Falls . We climbed up the falls to play in the seemingly never-ending pools above the fall. It was so peaceful and felt like we should have been in Hawaii and not the desert of Arizona ! Spencer, Jacob and Elaine all jumped the 75 foot fall!!

Saturday we were up early to play so more! We walked down to Mooney Falls . This fall plunges 200 feet! The only way to get to it is to climb through small holes cut in the rock and a slippery ledge! Getting down is worth it to play in the beautiful water and don’t forget to rope swing!!

Spencer and I hiked a little ways to find this canyon filled with green bushes and trees. It was amazing!! We had so much fun and can’t wait to go back next year!!
