Mooney Falls, Grand Canyon:

Mooney Falls, Havasupai, Grand Canyon:

Mooney Falls is the tallest of our waterfalls tumbling over 190' into a large blue pool which is perfect for swimming. Getting to the base of Mooney can be tricky, and requires some patience. Extreme caution is urged when making this descent. The trail to the base of the falls winds down the shoulder of the cliff towards the west canyon wall, and is marked with a worn sign. After a few dozen feet, the trail enters a short tunnel as it continues downward. These tunnels may have been natural caves initially, but have at the least been expanded by man and steps hewn into the rocks. The tunnel emerges onto a ledge where there is a great view of Mooney Falls at about 120' from the bottom. There is a chain in place which should encourage visitors to be safe, as a fall from here would be fatal.
