The Falls of Havasupai

The flash flood of August 2008 dramatically changed some of the fwateralls. Navajo Falls moved further down from the village. This is "New Navajo Falls."

Rock Falls is a new waterfall. You can walk along the sandstone shelf behind the falls.

The flood brought with it a wall of silty mud that raged down the falls, adding to the already mud covered precipices. The turquoise color of the water is due to the high calcium content which is created when the water percolates through limestone.

Havasu Falls used to be a double spout, but the left spout was clogged during the flood. This is truly a unique sight.
