havasupai falls
The beginning of April 03 my family and I are taking a hike down to the Havasupai Falls. We are planning on camping at the bottom for a couple days. Is there any must see places that anyone would recommend? Or any information or suggest at all? Thanks for your help! See ya hiking!

This is on my list of places that I have to take my kids to. Unfortunately, it is still on the "next year" list.

When I was at the Grand Canyon last year the park ranger gave me a handout about Havasu Canyon. Here are several numbers that are listed for camping reservations:
(520)448-2121; 448-2141 and 448-2237

Here are two numbers for lodge reservations and inquiries:
(520)448-2111 or 448-2201.

If you have all this info then disregard. Hope you have a great trip!

Check for a thread called "Grand Canyon" within the last couple weeks (possibly even more recent than that).

One of the threads had a link to a site recounting someone's trip to Havasupai. Some information and lots of GORGEOUS photos.

This is on my "to-do" list, also.

If I could just talk stikmon into, we might see you there!!! lol

did someone say...
TT hike???

I think NOT!!!

My mother has put a contract out on me, Lizs is the one to execute it, and send me to my demise out in Zion...my mother collects all the money...and gives Lizs a split.

Since this will be the last Stikmon hike, I would prefer to have no onlookers as Lizs "accidentally" pushes me over, or rather "attempts" to save me from slipping over the edge.

didjfan?
Have you started planning for the trip very much didjfan? This is first trip to the Havasupai Falls and to the Grand Canyon so I'm not really sure what to expect. Have you been there before?

Actually my buddy is doing the planning. He has sent me a trip plan of the days/miles. Need to start getting in shape.

At least 2 liters per person. More if you aren't used to the heat.
