Havasupai
Campground isn't for the average camper. You have got to want to go
there. And it's a hike! Easier than the trails into the
grand canyon, Havasupai is an 11 mile hike from the trailhead
to some of the most impressive series of waterfalls in the
United States.
The
Point Campground is accessible only by a three
mile boat trip on Canyon Lake. Although there is no fee
for using the campsite, there is a small fee of $2 per watercraft
and $4 per vehicle per day at Canyon Lake. The Point has
the only restroom facility on upper Canyon Lake.
If
you have a boat, there are several dispersed campgrounds
available upriver. Armed with a map of the river (available
in Marble Canyon) and good directions of how to avoid
losing a prop in the shallow water of the Colorado River
(ask anyone in one of the local fly fishing shops), there
are campgrounds at 6 mile, 7 1/2 mile, 8 mile, 9 mile,
Ferry Swale and Ropes Trail (powerline camp). All of
the campgrounds are a few steps from where you anchor
your boat and are a good 10 feet above the waterline.
