Havasupai- Part 1

So I'm still working on getting caught up. Maybe someday I will get caught up. So a couple weekends ago I headed up to the Grand Canyon to hike down to Havasupai. My sister and her roommate flew in Thursday night and I picked them up from the airport and drove up to the rim. We got there late so parked in the lot and rim and set up our tents in the parking lot so we could get a little bit of sleep. Friday morning I woke up to this amazing view.Seeing the sun reflect off of the canyon walls is amazing. It's probably one of my favorite parts of camping on the rim. In the morning we found that we had picked up an extra friends over the night. We had what we called our "watch dog".The dog stayed close by as we packed up our bags and got ready to start down the trail. The trail down in the morning wasn't too bad. The first mile and a half down is where you take most of the elevation down. It's not too bad on the way down the hill. The hike down isn't too bad, the worst part is that we are walking through gravel most of the way. There isn't much but canyon walls to see on the way down. It isn't til about a mile out of the village that we start seeing trees and water. That's the end of the hike so it's kind of nice.
From the village it's about 2 miles from there til the campground. It usually feels like the longest part of the hike, but that's because it's the end of a 10 mile hike.
