For anyone thinking about doing this, I can't recommend it enough. For anyone not thinking about visiting this place, I can't recommend it enough.

Take a left at vegas and follow this road until it dead ends

Hike the 10 miles in and pick out a good camp spot, from what I could tell there weren't any bad ones

We talked to quite a few people that were hiking in, spending that day in there and then out the next morning. IMO, that's not enough time. Give yourself a few days, you'll want to have time to explore and also lounge around.

swimming into this is a lot harder than it looks

the signs that say no jumping/diving seem to just be "informational"

however when the signs warning you about the hike down to money falls say it's rugged and dangerous, they aren't messing around

it's well worth the climb down/out

you might want to pack your own nighttime entertainment

however the free shows aren't half bad

Thank you for sharing the great pictures! Makes me miss all of the camping/hiking/4-wheeling I used to do when I lived in God's country---ARIZONA!
