Havasupai Phase 3

 Day 4-- Beaver Falls HikeFour mile hike through gorgeous terrain to Beaver Falls.  You hike down the canyon past Mooney Falls (in the background).

Have some vines! There were entire valleys of this stuff! 

We found the old rope swing-which apparently pre flood was quite cool. It served us with a little entrainment but not like it would have been.  We played on it for a little while though.

Then we thought we had found Beaver Falls.  Come to find out, it wasn't!

Before we could get to the actual Beaver Falls we had to first pass the 1 random palm tree in the entire place (or the only one we saw)

and a fun little mountain we had to rock climb up (and repel back down)

At Beaver Falls:

This was one of Luke's 2 top favorite places.

Beaver Falls is a cool cascading waterfall that you can jump off (over) into the deep pool below.  It had a fairly swift current though so you had to swim kind of hard to get back out before the next cascade.

Under one of the cascades was a lush green room

 Another waterfall had a cave where you had to to swim under the water a few feet and then come up out into a small stalactite cave just large enough for 3 or so people's heads to come up out into open air.  It was a bit claustrophobic!   And I really don't know how that room got discovered... but it wouldn't have been by me! Luke had to pull me up through it because I was kind of scared. Glad I did it though!
