Havasupai AZ

Havasu Falls
This is one of the about a dozen horse/mule trains bringing backpacks and goods to the village of the Havasupai people that live here. The only access to Havasupai Arizona is via a 12 mile hike or helicopter. All 2,000+/- native residents of Havasupai hike or ride a horse to the rest of the world

The hike in and out


A "street" in the village



This little Havsupai girl grabbed my hat for a pose in the restaurant in the village. There is a medical clinic, school, restaurant, store, post office, tribal offices and one 6 room hotel in the village.



This is Havasu falls right before you reach the campground.

Havasuapi is one of the most beautiful places on earth.
I baked a double layer cake and frosted it for a birthday at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. It is easy to be good cook miles from civilization

Here is Taz descending Mooney falls. You must descend through these tunnels and down the cliffs. It is amazing.

The amazing contrast of dessert and tropical jungle in one place makes you want to stay forever
