Landform

A single turquoise plunge under red walls — Havasu Falls, not the taller drop of Mooney downstream.

Field note

The water is mineral-blue. Cottonwood takes the bank. This is Havasupai land; a tribal permit is required. The named fall is Havasu, not Mooney’s longer plunge farther down the creek.
