Weekend 2 day Trip

Around this time of year it's nice to go to some place with some water to go swimming. I live in phoenix and am looking for a relaxing 2 day backpacking trip within 2 hours driving distance. Any suggestions would be great! Preferably with water, the heat doesn't really bother me a whole lot either. ...

Waterfalls in Grandcanyon

Other than havasu falls and everything in that area, I was wondering on some really cool areas to check out some waterfalls in the grand canyon. Some within 20 miles of hiking distance, preferably starting on the North side of the canyon. Any one who has gone to any super sick falls at the canyon an...

Re: Hiking vehicles

I have a '06 rubicon and love it. Gas mileage could be better, but it's worth it. If I were to ever get a different car I would definitely accompany it with a dirt bike to make up for my loss of 4x4 and awesomeness.

Re: Highlines? Waterlines?

I can't figure out why they just don't still call it tight-rope walking? The equipment must sell better with a cooler name :D Tight ropes don't have slack and are pretty much fixed ropes, they don't move at all; it's like walking on top of a pole. Slack lines move up, down, left, right; this can be...

Highlining is slacklining really high up, waterlining is slacklining over water, which is really fun especially if your about 20 feet high.

Highlines? Waterlines?

Does anyone know of any good places to set up a high line, or even better, a high waterline close (+-50miles) to the Phoenix area.

Thanks :y:

That's a good idea. I checked out the logs. In accordance to previous years, the falls look like fun!
Thanks for the post

Re: 2night/3day Hikes - June - Flagstaff/Sedona

You would definitely want to do Humphrey's peak (highest point in Arizona) and at the top, on a nice, clear day, if you are looking in the right direction you can see the grand canyon. Which brings me to my next recommendation. After hiking to the highest point in arizona, hike down the biggest cany...

Reavis Falls Water Flow?

My friend hiked this about a month ago and said the water was flowing. I am wanting to take my girlfriend out there for the weekend... wondering if anyone knows how it's looking.

Thank you for helping me out!

Re: Few GC Questions!

Thank you for the replies! @azbackbackr- The heat really doesn't bother me. I have done several 5-8 hour hikes within the valley mid day in 100+ degree weather. I do appreciate the alternative trails you posted but I think we are set on the grand canyon. Yeah, we do plan on getting a very early star...

Few GC Questions!

How's it going! My brother and I are going to the grand canyon this June 18th. I am very excited because the 19th is supposed to be a new moon meaning the stars should be even more magnificent than usual! Our current plan is to start at the South rim, take Bright angel down and then head up to the N...

Re: Chances of getting a permit...

Thanks everyone for the replies! I would like to go earlier, but I heard after March 10th it is everything is booked until almost summer time. So if I were to apply for a permit exactly 4 months in advanced (since that is the earliest you can request) I will be extremely likely to be granted my req...

Chances of getting a permit...

So me and 1 or 2 friends are wanting to do a two or three day hike this summer. I have never hiked over night at the GC, so I have never applied for a permit.
Should I try and apply asap or do I have time?

Thanks
