    Morgan was an awesome guide. It was great to climb in Prescott and get away from the heat. Morgan was very knowledgeable and picked a good shady spot for the day.

    Watson Lake Park, one of the areas we went climbing at.

    OK. This is a super short and super easy hike. It is slightly challenging if you take the direct…read moreroute straight up. Going this direction, it is paved all the way to the base of the rock formation forming the top. Going this direction is also steeper than going the opposite direction (CCW). From here, you're climbing, not hiking. But that part is pretty easy too...just be careful and stay within your limits. Perigrin falcons nest on the top rock section and this section does have a nesting closure period which I believe is summer through fall...but you should research the exact range as I'm not sure. If you keep your eyes open, you can see them most times of the year...but they're fast! You can also get to the base of the rock section forming the top, by a dirt path. The grade is easier, but the path there is longer. You'll occasionally see mountain bikes on this path, so heads up. Regardless of which path you use to get to the top, keep your eyes open (& ears a listening) for rattlesnake. I've seen them multiple times hiking this area. I've also seen numerous hikers that let their dogs run free (against park rule). It would not be a good day for your dog if it gets bitten.

    6 words that say it all: This hike will kick your butt! lol My son and I hiked this around…read morewintertime when it was still cold outside, I paid the $5 parking fee and we soon began our walk up the steep hill. If you have bad knees like I do, walking up is easier than down, my knees hurt so bad every step I took walking down because it was such a long steep down. I was able to make it to the top with my 7-year-old, surprisingly he enjoyed it all. Depending on your viewpoint, I saw someone had just arrived in the parking lot when we were getting ready to leave, thought it'd be nice to just give him my ticket so he could save $5. We were only there for like 1.5 hours. Tip: Also, if you just want to drive by it and take a nice mini scenic drive(because you're like me and you're curious to know what else is up that road..), keep driving on the road past the paid parking and you'll notice people will park on the side of the road and walk the more flat areas, there are further trails you'll notice. I drove the whole thing till it takes you to some nice houses that seem like they're in the middle of nowhere, more beautiful and all the high trees, you drive through the houses in a loop which will lead you back on the same road to head back into town. You'll see it, or just view it on your maps. I've driven it several times, absolutely beautiful views on this mini scenic drive, probably about 15-20 min drive.

    I grew up going to summer camp in Prescott during my teenager years. Not long ago, I had an…read moreopportunity to volunteer as a cabin leader at UCYC during the summer. It was my first time at this particular camp and it brought back many memories of my camp days growing up. UCYC is a non-denominational, non-profit organization that is affiliated with the Independent Christian Churches in both Arizona and Nevada. UCYC (United Christian Youth Camp) started in the 1950s. UCYC has both summer and winter camps. They offer a number of activities for the kids. Activities include a zipline, swimming pool, basketball, paintball and archery. The campus is pretty large and includes a dining hall and main auditorium for larger gatherings. My only knock about this camp is the long walk from some of the cabins to the other side of camp where the dining hall is. Walking that far three times a day for food got old quick. But the food wasn't too bad for camp food. I am big fan of kids unplugging from their devices and going to camp to have fun and meet new friends. Some of my best times as a youth were at camp. It is a great place for kids to grow in their faith too. I had a blast being a leader and getting to know other leaders while I was here at UCYC.

    We were here with a school group. It was clean and comfortable. The kids had a great time with the…read moreactivities and hiking. The food was awesome. The staff was friendly and as helpful as they could be.

    I always wanted to see the havasupai falls, trek down and camp. All these were made possible…read morebecause of Centerfocus. Let me start of with the fact that they are the best offering price for this guide compared to anybody else~ and alongside with the price, is not just a regular tour, but a bonded friendship springing out of it. we had Ty as our main guide and Patrick as our co-guide during our trip. Ty is the perfect tour guide because aside from knowing the place inside out, he had developed a friendship with the village people. From hiking, to "glamping" to porting us to and from our hotel, our experience was nothing but extraordinary. I would definitely recommend Centerfocus experiences to anyone-- you can never go wrong. Thanks for the wonderful experience Ty and Patrick! Havasupai wouldn't be the same without you. :) Ps~ Ty makes the best meals :)

We stumbled across CenterFocus while we were searching for Canyoneering so we decided to get in touch with them. I had a week long correspondence with Garrett, primary owner of CenterFocus and he couldn't have been more helpful. He was very patient with me as I'm a total "newbie" in terms of canyoneering / rock climbing. After some quick conversations, we decided to put aside the canyoneering experience and try our hands at some rock climbing over at Jacks Canyon. The entire trip over to Jacks Canyon was something that my husband and I will remember for a long time. Garrett and his fellow guide Bennet were awesome through the canyon, and even better mentors for beginner rock climbers. Being a couple of people with NO rock climbing experience, and not to mention I am afraid of heights, they were the most patient and helpful guides around. We had an absolute blast, and we discovered a new hobby thanks to the exceptional guiding skills of CenterFocus. On the car ride back with Garrett, we've already made numerous plans on coming back this upcoming spring to partake in the canyoneering expeditions, and hopefully some other endeavors. Our only regret is that we live in New York and can't experience CenterFocus adventures more often. If you're looking for a legit, out of the ordinary experience away from the "commercial and corporate obsessed" tours, you need to check out CenterFocus. We'll be back without a doubt.
