Preparing

Gear Wise, What to Bring!

​

To help with planning your trip to Havasupai, we've created a comprehensive packing list below, along with some links of the items we love to use and have found most useful for this trip. Remember there is a leave no trace policy so what you pack in you must take out. Plan accordingly, as you see fit. We recommend traveling light (under 35lbs) unless you're utilizing a pack animal. Different times of the year will require warmer gear.
