This is the trip documentary of three dudes trek into the wild orange yonder of one of Arizona’s hidden gems.

WARNING: THIS VIDEO CONTAINS MULTIPLE F-BOMBS

On our 4 day, 45 mile hike, from the hilltop to the Colorado, we experienced breathtaking waterfalls, forged a raging turquoise river and hit “the wall” more than once.

Known as the Garden of Eden in the desert, Havasu Falls in one of the most well-known waterfalls in the world. To backpack into the Havasupai Indian Reservation at the bottom of the Grand Canyon isn’t your average day-hike. The 10-mile Havasupai Trail from the Hualapai Hilltop to Havasu Falls (shown on the right) is a long hike, although usually done in one day, with little protection from the boiling Arizona sun. The beautiful turquoise pools and spectacular waterfalls are though considered well worth the hike.

The 10-mile trail to Havasu Falls is a long, dry, and hot hike from the dry Hualapai Hilltop to the green Havasu Falls. Plan on a 4 – 7 hour hike each way. There is no clean water sources beginning at the trailhead till you reach the village, so plan on bringing about a gallon of water for the hike down.
From the end of the parking area the trail drops dramatically down the sandstone precipice via a series of switchbacks cut into the cliff. After just 1 mile, it has descended 2000 feet to the dry wash in the bottom of Hualapai Canyon. Prepare for the heat, as these first 3 miles offer no protection from the sun. For the next 5.5 miles, the trail follows the gently sloping wash as the canyon drops down through the red layers of Supai sandstone. Shortly thereafter, at 3250 feet, you come to the end of Hualapai Canyon at its junction with Havasu Canyon. Here the nature of the canyon bottom changes as a gushing river emerges from the ground at Havasu Springs. You can read the rest of the route on Wild Backpacker.com
