I'm a skier, mountain biker, backpacker, college student. I like deep powder, flowy trails, and big towering mountains!

I've done this hike many times. It's a nice Saturday afternoon hike with family or friends. Great waterfall at the end! Beautiful scenery all the way up. Stand under the waterfall if you dare!

This place has it all! Open majestic desert, amazing scenery and powerful, awe-inspiring waterfalls (the Supai village is quite fun as well), and some of the best cliff jumping! I would strongly recommend the day hike, although I've personally only gone as far as Beaver Falls. Of all the backpacking adventures I've been on, this tops the list as the funnest!

The scenery is amazing from start to finish! Another option is to start above the escalante and shuttle to the trailhead, which is about 12-14 miles. When i went the creek was carrying a lot of silt, so bring something to keep your filter from clogging. Would recommend going when it is warmer. They don't allow fires, so late fall to early spring will be very cold.
