Poll of the Day > I'm going to Havasupai Falls this weekend.

(+) Yeah! (+)

You may have seen the videos on Facebook about it. The 10 mile hike to the clear blue waterfalls and pool.

I'm anxious because it's short notice but I don't think anyone will let me die.

I am looking forward to seeing something a lot of people don't get to see.

And you didnt invite me!?!?
How rude
---

There's no room, sorry.
---

This is where I'll be in 48 hours! :D
---

Have a safe trip!

So Jelly Jen:)

Have a blast!

It's so pretty :)

I'm excited

Hopefully I don't die on the hike in from the heat but I think we're gonna hike in pretty early.

We have to helicopter out because the tiny Mexican needs to be to work Monday night so that'll be really fun too!

I think there's only one route to take.

I hope it's still blue. It's monsoon season and there's been flood so it may not be ;-;

Just 1. No tour, just on our own. We have a reservation because you need a permit to go and so we have a camp site.

Can I come too? Meet you there!

Just one.

Is it Mando?

Nice! I went down there three times when I was in middle or high school. Hiking out is kind of a hard, but its definitely fun. Be careful with these monsoon flash floods though

we're only hiking in! we're taking a helicopter out! should be fun. yeah we'll have to be careful because there's actually a chance of rain at the grand canyon this weekend so hopefully we'll be alright.

God that looks amazing but I wouldn't hike it myself if the temp was over 85 anymore *sigh*.

Since it's AZ it's probably usually over 85.

Looks neat, have fun.

The hike is super easy. First mile is only remotely challenging part. Just hug the cliff wall and be wary of horses going up and down that first mile of switchbacks. Other than that, bring plenty of fluids because it's hot as balls here in AZ. Just take plenty of rest breaks. I did the hike down in a little over 2 hours and my ankles we're pretty much done.

Also do yourself a favor and avoid talking to 90% of the natives. The town and people are pretty much garbage tier. Mistreatment of animals, kids will straight up call you every bad word you could imagine, average of 1-2 arrests a week in a town of only 200-300. It's okay, most of them will die from diabetes in a few years anyway. Location is beautiful though. Enjoy.

Have fun. I wish I could go. Maybe someday when I'm rich...

Thanks for the advice! I heard that after that first mile or so it's pretty flat walking. I was planning on snagging some walking sticks just in case because I've never hiked 10 miles before and with what you said about your ankles that might be a good idea. I did buy a hydration bladder and an extra water bottle so hopefully I'll be okay on water for the 8 miles until we get to town. I think we're going to start the hike really early in the morning to avoid having it be too too hot. We have headlamps and flashlights.

Will you have a soup tho

Hehehehe punny.

We're actually going to buy MREs so we don't have to cook while we're there and they don't take a lot of room in our storage pack. We have a 65L pack. I'm not sure if we'll get another. I wanted to but Mando thought it would be fine with just one for the two of us. I am kind of an over planner but I always think better safe than sorry in situations like this.

Water that blue has to be shopped

You are shopped

It was pretty rough I'm not gonna lie but once I got to the falls it was well worth it! I had an awesome time.
