Don't let the Grand Canyon backdrop
fool you, the main attraction amongst
the red rocks is the Havasu Falls. The
crystal blue waterways come together
at the bottom to form a swimming hole
that rivals the clearest of all Caribbe-
an seas. What makes this swimming
spot so special is that it taps into the
adventurer in you because to access
the falls, one must undergo a strenu-
ous 10-mile hike, each way. There are
of course alternatives, but they'll cost
you. A helicopter ride for those who
can swing it or you can saddle up and
ride horseback. As part of the Hava-
supai American Indian Reservation,
once you reach the falls you'll be miles
and miles from civilization but all that
closer to an otherworldly oasis.
