This video goes over everything you need to know about visiting Havasupai - from the best waterfalls, hiking to the Confluence, what to bring backpacking, where to camp, where to park, a trail recap, getting permits, and more!

I know it's going to be tough on him but i think this is the perfect start to get him interested, plus a good digital detox altogether for both of us. Before we get there on the 17th im going to swing him up to the Sand Dunes in Colorado as an additional bonus. We live in central TX.

    My family and I did this hike 2004,my youngest being 8. She hiked all the way to the bottom by herself. The family took the mule back up I hiked and beat them. I didn’t pay for any permit at the time but I am also Comanche, Native American.
    My wife and I hiked from north rim to the bottom and back last year at 60. It took 8 hrs but we did it and there was a heat advisory! Love the outdoors! Love God!
