That's a cool trip. Have them pack your camping equipment in and then you can hike in.

10 miles each way. First mile going in is some really steep switch backs, the rest not too bad. But of course that makes the hike out a bitch, after nine miles, looking up those switchbacks can be pretty demoralizing. If your in decent shape, I'd recommend having your gear hauled in by mule & hiking. If your out of shape, take the helicopter. I went in college, screwed up by starting early afternoon, getting lost & sleeping in the middle of nowhere the first night. Get an early start.

Very worthwhile to visit, the falls are pretty incredible :thumbsup.
