    All right. That does it. I will have to get more aggressive on trying to get a permit. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TEX! Beautiful pic at the end.

    You didn't tell me that you had just hiked down to Havasu Falls in August when I was telling you about my story this spring. I got there 2 days after the bridge was taken out. It was kind of fun navigating across it at night with your headlamp.

    What is the best weather app/page to follow for Havasupai? How much rain was predicted? What other areas should we check for weather that impacts the water levels and colors? Your trip was beautiful!

    Thank you for the video, Lisa. Beautiful, exciting, but looks very dangerous and definitely beyond my comfort/ability level. Always enjoy yours videos and began watching you on your AT thru hike. Definitely missed you since then but happy to see you posting again. Would you consider a video about your job, requirements, and responsibilities working at the Grand Canyon? I’m sure many people would be interested in hearing about something that is beyond what most of us could do.

    is the treacherous climb the only way down to the falls?

    Hi, when did you go? I am going next week. Do we have electrical outlets to charge near campground? Also do we get food to eat?

    • @lisaphikes
      @lisaphikes  9 місяців тому

      I went August 9-12. There are no outlets at the campground. I brought an Anker 10,000 battery bank to recharge my phone which I use as my camera.
      I brought all my own food. There is a cafe in Supai village and a very small grocery store where you could buy snacks, but the village is a two mile uphill hike from the campground. However, there are electric outlets in the cafe, so if you go, you may want to bring your electronics and charging cords.
