much to the dismay of some friends and family, i am not going to "have a soup fight" this weekend.
rather, i am making the trek here:
to Havasupai Falls in the Grand Canyon.sweet, right? yes.
it's now 12:55am as i'm writing this, and i've spent the past 2.5 hours
Stuffing all of this:
So that I always look and feel this good on the trail:
Totally ready to go. :)
We'll hit the trailhead about 7:00a.m. on Thursday morning, after getting to my parents' in Henderson, NV, tomorrow evening about midnight... then an 8 mile hike down to the Havasu Tribe Village to check in, then another quick 2-miler to our campground.
There will be lots of the following:
- Jumping off of waterfalls
- Sleeping on the ground
- Hiking
- More waterfalls
- Playing Nate's crazy camping games
- Eating freeze dried dinners
- Bug spray
- Sunscreen
- Water drinking
- And using the "facilities" of the wild.... oh joy. my favorite part.
- Did I mention the waterfalls?
See you Monday!!! :)

Have fun!! 2 of my friends just got back- I've always wanted to go but couldn't for obvious reasons. They loved it, even with the aches and pains of the hike. They did say that it had recently been flooded so all the falls weren't open or had been ruined a little- just to give you a heads up for your expectations.
Can't wait for pictures!
Oh and I can't believe you're hiking during the day!! are you crazy!
