Havasupai Indian Reservation

So he went backpacking in the Grand Canyon to this paradise on Earth.

It's on the Havasupai Reservation.

And they camped for five days at Mooney Falls.

I suggest checking out pictures of Mooney Falls.

Our nights were spent in RV parks that we found along the way.

On our final leg of the trip, we headed to the Havasupai Indian Reservation.

We got some really awesome photos and went on a thoroughly interesting tour.

On the last night, we were driving around looking for an RV park to sleep in.

Have a soup high.

I'm Lynn Langerman, here for Newstomorrow.net. We're flying past the Havasupai Indian Reservation in central Arizona in search of the origins of murder victim Jim

Doe.

Hey, Lynn, I don't think you should say murdered.

The detailed stories will be in the next two newsletters.

I didn't truly understand the word Shangri-La until I trekked 10 miles deep down south of the Grand Canyon in Arizona to the blue water on the Havasupai Reservation, home of the Havasupai tribe, and saw the milky light blue creeks and splendid waterfalls pouring into azure ponds below.

The pristine water comes from invisible aquifer under the canyon's ancient limestone layers, which formed under prehistoric seas hundreds of millions of years ago.

As the spring water flows underground, it dissolves high concentrations of calcium carbonate, Upon reaching the surface, these dissolved minerals precipitate out of the water to build the travertine formations and waterfalls seen today.
