Hiking Havasupai part 1 - day one 10/8/12

Let me just start by saying this is something I have wanted to do for a very long time.  I love hiking around Phoenix, I do my best to get to Thunderbird park at least once a week, but needless to say when it's 112+ it's a little hard to get motivated to hike.  I will say I am not in the best shape of my life and you will understand that when I get to the end of my photos.

We stayed the night in Seligman @the Romney, it was not a four star resort, but ok.

Sheila, Jordyn, Mckenna & Shannon
We left Seligman and arrived at the trailhead about 9 unpack all our gear for the mules & horses to take to the campground for us.
Then we all posed for our group photo and the descent to the canyon.  The top of the hill is gray & high desert.  It is definitely not prettiest part of the Grand Canyon.  If you ever decided to do this trip you must do the hike in once.  It's the only way you can experience how beautiful & majestic it really is.  You have to walk into the canyon to really understand how large it is .
