They're in!


Another early start for the team before a short drive for breakfast. After breakfast they made use of what was going to be the last WiFi connection before Las Vegas to update friends and family and have a wander around the Grand Canyon Caverns Curio Shop.

They then had to put together some lunch before heading off on the next part of the adventure, to trek into the Grand Canyon.


















After driving for about 1 1/2 hours, taking in the sites as they drove, they trekked down into the canyon to a small village where they were amazed to find another WiFi hotspot. Mandy took the opportunity to upload what is now sure to be the last images until Vegas.












Day 4: Grand Canyon Trek: Beaver Falls 


Trek approx 5-6 hours / 7-8 miles


Another adventurous day today, with some spectacular scenery! Leaving Havasu Falls, we head down the trail towards Mooney Falls. Our route takes us down the waterfall using a series of ladders and tunnels to reach the base. The descent is not for the faint-hearted, but it allows us to access the beautiful canyon below the falls. We continue our trek on a rough trail which crosses the creek several times before reaching Beaver Falls. From here we return to camp, exploring hidden falls and pools on our way.
