Horseshoe Bend

Horseshoe Bend

Horseshoe Bend, a 270 degree curve in the Colorado River, is about 1 mile hike from the highway -- a hike up and down a hill, in the Arizona sun. In addition to the spectacular views, the most memorable things from this visit to Horseshoe Bend was the Memorial Day weekend crowd and... and... and... the 💩. After climbing and descending the hill, someone exclaimed "I pooped!" Sure enough, they did. I suggest, that if you need to poop, you do so at the restrooms by the parking lot. There are no toilets near the overlook.
