Mooney Falls

12 Dec 2011 3 6 675
Havasu Creek, a tributary of the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon. This was the waterfall in one of the opening scenes in the original Planet of the Apes, with Charlton Heston. The area lies in the Havasupai Reservation; Supai Village, the only permanent settlement in the Grand Canyon, is a few miles upstream. I've heard that a large flood has subsequently rearranged the falls, but I haven't been back in the last 35+ years!
