Havasupai and Oatman


We just had the most awesome hiking experience in the Grand Canyon. 20 miles round trip into the Havasupai Nation. It was absolutely beautiful. The water is a lovely shade of turquoise green and the falls are very powerful it feels like a hurricane when you're underneat them. It's also so loud that you can't even hear anything but torrents of water. I was so sore after hiking the 10 miles in that I didn't know how I was going to hike out. I had planned on taking the helicopter out but my wonderful friends Asher, Halen, Tim, and Hope, would not let me. I'm sure glad in retrospect that they "encouraged me " to hike out because it would have felt like I cheated otherwise. We had so much fun playing in the water it was a little cold but you get used to it after a while I only wished I could have played in it more. We hiked out just as quick as we hiked in I was so surprised. After that we saw the Burrows in the ghost town Oatman there were babies and they were only 2 weeks old so they couldn't be fed the carrots.
