Share Our World: Highlights of Lake Powell Vacation

I am so excited to share with you highlights from my trip to Lake Powell. Our family went to Page, Arizona for a few days then rented a house boat on Lake Powell.

This is the first time we have ever boated together and it was great!

Page, Arizona

My sister and I were both born in Page and so we started our family reunion here. In addition to eating a lot of great food, playing and talking. We visited Antelope Canyon, Glen Canyon Dam, and Horseshoe Bend.

Note: The posts with the link and ^* have more detailed posts and most have videos!

Antelope Canyon^*

I have lived in Arizona for 15 years and have wanted to go Antelope Canyon the whole time. Since we were staying in Page we got tickets and all went together! It was wonderful.

The Glen Canyon Dam^*

The dam was built in Page in 1956-1966. It is 710-foot (220 m) high dam and helps ensures water from the Colorado Rivers gets to people in the states in the southwest United States. 1
Hive account@jarvie had a great time telling dam jokes!

Horseshoe Bend^*

This is my 2nd time to Horseshoe bend and I enjoyed it much more this time with my family. It is a short 1.3 mile hike to the bend in the Colorado River. We went at sunset and so the weather was very pleasant.

Coming out of Wahweap Marina^*

We had good weather as we came out of the marina.

Storm on the Lake^*

Not long into our trip we ran right into a very big thunder, lighting, hail storm on the lake. Hive account@jarvie did an amazing job driving the house boat through the storm. I also got some great moody pictures.

First day's camp^*

Our first dock was really great! I set up a tent on the shore and this was my view in the morning.

Sunrise jet skiing West Canyon^*

My favorite part of the trip was the early morning jet ski adventures!

Jodi joined Hive account@jarvie and me the 2nd morning

Oak Canyon^*

We beached the boat for a couple days at Oak Canyon. It was a great location, close to some great canyons, Rainbow Bridge and Hole in the rock.

Rainbow Bridge^*

A group of us got on the pontoon boat and sailed as as close as we could and then hiked to Rainbow Bridge.

Sunrise jet ski Anasazi Canyon^*

The 3rd morning we had Jodi and Vonda join us for a fun adventure through Anasazi canyon. Scotty brought his drone.

Hole in the Rock^*

This day we took the pontoon boat to Hole in the Rock. Which is a Historic place where a group of Mormon pioneers traversed through a narrow crack in the canyon rim. 2
