Crying because this is so wholesome and it makes me happy :)

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

That makes us happy!

[@mkredenbaugh6322]

Thank you for sharing this trip! It was one of my favorite trips when we hiked it 45 years ago!

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@rafaelrieck6655]

With my nearly 80 years I´m sitting on my sofa and looking that great video.

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

We will keep hiking until we can't and then join you on the sofa. We're glad we can bring our experiences into your home!

Rock on Sally and Co....wish I could afford this lifestyle now ....I wandered the Sonoran desert in my 30s and dream of doing it again......in my 60s.....stay healthy

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

Thank you for your encouragement. Staying healthy is the challenge as we become more and more chronologically gifted.

I have a trip to Havasupai at the end of August and of all the videos I’ve seen on this hike yours has been by far the most informative!

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

We're glad we can help.

I, too, hiked to Havasu Falls and campground in 1978!! It was hiking in only, no mules to carry our heavy backpacks, and certainly no helicopter ride out!! Luckily we were healthy and strong kids in our late 20’s at that time. The falls were vivid blue and it was a magical place. I remember swimming in the pools at the bottom of the falls. I also vaguely remember soaking in hot springs nearby. We stayed at the campground for 2-3 nights and had a good time exploring the area. 10 miles in and 10 miles out…it was quite the adventure. Thanks for sharing this as it brings back great memories of my youth. On this same trip, we were living in Jackson, Wyoming at the time and took off during the spring mud season for at least a month, we explored and reveled in the Grand Canyon…hiked down to Phantom Ranch and back up again. That hike changed me forever. Loved Zion and Bryce Canyon and Capitol Reef, camping and hiking all the way. I am so glad I did these things when I was young. Congratulations on making the trip.

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

Thanks for sharing! I wish I had started in my 20s instead of my 70s.

[@napman99]

We did this one just few years after we got married in 1979 and after we had our first baby girl. We still remembered how blue-green color of the water at those falls. One of my fav hikes ( I did this one 3 times with different partners). Thanks for sharing, it brought back some fond memories for us.

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

Glad we could stimulate those happy feelings!

[@wit2pz]

What a wonderful video! I went with my fiancee and some friends in April and commemorated my 50th birthday with a tremendously challenging hike out to the Confluence on the eve of my birthday! I love your spirit, and hope my fiancee and I can be as adventuresome as you are in our coming years! Cheers and God bless you! Mike

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

Thank you for the nice comments. We just finished day 10 of the Camino Primitivo. We only have 4 to go until we reach Santiago de compostela. It has been so fun, hard, and different. We will have a KZbin summary ready at the end of June.

[@wit2pz]

Wow, how awesome is that!! Cheers to you and I’m subscribed so I can’t wait to see it! 🥰🙌

[@babetravelling]

Thank you. I luv ur story telling. Great video 💕

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

Sally's had lots of experience telling stories to 6 children and 20 grandchildren. Thanks.

[@divinaflamingarrow9556]

Thank you for this video. I got there by helicopter years ago. It is so nice to visit this way! Just beautiful!!❤

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

Thank you for sharing.

[@rhyacinthlevrini6577]

Wow! Talk about "hot off the presses"! What a beautiful and blessed Pilgrimage to witness Nature´s awesome beauty, and a great edited video. I applaud your fortitude. Thanks for sharing the wonder!

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

Thank you for your kind remarks. Havasupai is a great experience.

[@TimmyCramer]

Thank you for posting! Going down in 3 weeks. Hoping water clears up!! Timmy C Arizona

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

You should be good. It improved during our stay. If you use a hammock, there are lots of trees. We took way too much food. Try the fry bread. Have fun!

[@TimmyCramer]

@@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa Awesome and notes taken! Keep enjoying life and adventure!!

[@jules1sd]

Neat to see your journey down. It's been 5 years since my son and I visited. What a beautiful journey.

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

You are so right!

[@FollowThomas]

That's a cool area. Thanks for sharing your hiking story. I'm in Florida but heading to Grand Canyon in a couple of weeks. Looking forward hiking in the area.

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

Florida is beautiful! You will love the Grand Canyon. It is certainly one of God's greatest creations. Hiking is the greatest way to experience it.

[@deluxejay69]

This video makes me want to go there. Been living in Kingman my whole life and have never been to Supai. It's only a two hour drive to the trailhead

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

You should go! That trip was great!

[@shadyberero6809]

Great video! The visuals are stunning, you have a lovely narration style. Enjoyed watching.

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

You are very kind. We enjoy sharing God's beautiful creations!

[@loricollins3163]

Love your positivity and adventurous spirit! The hike down and the flight out seemed to be the best routes to soak in the awesome beauty of this special place. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

You're very welcome. Being out in God's beautiful creations is always inspiring!

[@myatlantictravel]

[@heatherdavison3791]

So beautiful!

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

It really is!

[@geraldoyo1]

Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm sorry it was muddy and not that beautiful blue water that drives me to want to go! One of the nicest videos I've seen.

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

We were originally scheduled in March 2020 but Covid pushed it forward 3 years. It was a great experience. Thanks for your comment.

[@techtronpc]

Thanks for being such an inspiration to me!

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

You will have fun. I am proud of you!

[@davesnyder5198]

That was an awesome video!

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

Glad you liked it!

[@rudygeorgiamulesandcountry1594]

Truly a magical place ! I broke my left ring finger swinging on a rope and plunging into the water.

[@rudygeorgiamulesandcountry1594]

Take plenty of extra water on your way out,, there is N0 place to replenish !

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

Now that's a memory not soon forgotten. I won't be swinging on ropes anytime soon as I approach my 74th birthday.

[@LionheartedDan]

Thank you for an informative and enjoyable video! The narration is informal and excellent!

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

Thank you for your feedback. We're still learning but more importantly we're having fun!

[@Colversan718]

Wow that looks like a great experience! Thanks for sharing. I heard there is a whole new world in those caves. Extra Terrestrials? I just watched a video of documents and evidence of Giants, Humanoids and Egyptian hieroglyphics. You were very brave and adventurous.

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

During our 50 years of marriage I am continually amazed by Sally's adventurous spirit. I just try to keep up with her. Thank you for your comments. Have a wonderful week as we prepare to celebrate Easter.

[@katherinecarmona3257]

Any tips on getting the helicopter out? I had a hysterectomy 10 weeks ago and I don’t think I could do the hike twice! We’re you able to take your bag on the hike out? I’m so excited to go! Looks amazing

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

It's a first come, first served situation. Try to get to the village by 8 am. You'll still wait several hours. Helicopter only operates Thursday, Friday, Sunday & Monday. $100/person cash or $110 credit card. You can still send your backpack on the mules if you've paid for that service. Have fun and talk to the villagers. You'll learn a lot. Happy hiking!

[@Treefoxxi]

That dinosaur out in front of the restaurant just looks SO thirsty and dry

The golden years can really be golden but it takes work - kind of like hiking.

So many petrified stump of trees.

[@thomasbakke6825]

It is too loud😮.

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

Thanks for the feedback.

[@jules1sd]

Volume seemed good to me.

I wonder if it's still muddy waters!

[@Hikingwithgrandmaandgrandpa]

It should be back to normal now.
