Backpacking Havasupai and the Confluence
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 вер 2024
- Over 3 days myself along with a few buddies backpack into the beautiful oasis that is Havasupai in northern Arizona at the southern end of the Grand Canyon. If you're planning a trip or thinking about planning a trip, you'll love being able to see how the trail looks, gain tips from my experience and getting some stoke from seeing these beautiful places before you go.
On day one we hike into the canyon and enjoy Havasu falls that evening. Day 2 we tackle the big 16 mile round trip hike to see Mooney falls, Beaver falls and then all the way down to the Confluence where the spring flows into the Colorado river.
Hopefully from this video, you can take away some tips and ideas for your hike here.
Absolutely beautiful! Thanks for bringing us along, and this is without a doubt a bucket list hike. Heal up from the bum ankle soon!
I really appreciate it man!
What a dream trip, thanks for sharing your experience!
My pleasure 😃
JS, this video may be my favorite so far! PD and I watched with the kids and we were so amazed at the colors and the clear water, not to mention the sketchy looking cliff hanging…. 😳 great camera work. Hope that ankle gets better! Thank goodness for helicopters. Thx for sharing.
Hey thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! And yes the ankle is way better now, Thank you!! 😃
This was so helpful! I'm excited to get back and hit up the confluence this time. :)
You definitely gotta go all the way down. So worth it
some amazing shots of the waterfalls. Beautiful. Great video. Enjoyed it.
Many thanks!
This has been on my bucket list for years! Trying to go 2025
I hope you do! It's such a great trip
Awesome video man! So bummed I couldn't make it.
We definitely missed you man, would have been fun to have you join
Dammit. Now I gotta do this. 😂😂
HAHA go! It's amazing
Tripa is actually cow's intestines or tripes, delicious in tacos tho.
You should try lengua tacos if you haven't yet which is cow's tongue.
Oh gotcha, I knew it was somewhere inside lol. Delicious for sure though
Beautiful !! Have a few questions though, if I may
The descend is not that scary so long as you are careful right ? Because some section look bad but I guess sometimes looking through the lens is not what exactly is there ?
How long did it take to confluence from beaver falls ?
Do you need a hiking pole ?
Is it 6 miles one way from beaver falls ?
Is it hard to follow the trial without a gps ?
I see in the end at the confluence you walked into the water without taking the climb up the rocks around it. Is it safe ? I am just curious.
Thanks for the video !!
Great questions! So the descent really isn't that scary as long as you take your time. There are so many good foot and hand holds!
The confluence took us about 8 hours total from the camp grounds. Probably about 16 miles round trip and most of the time the trail is easy to find without GPS. But there were a few spots where GPS was extremely helpful and I would recommend having it
What camera do you use for vlogging? I’m going to Havasu in October and this inspired me to vlog my experience
I love hearing that! This was all shot with either my iPhone 15 pro or an insta 360 x3
