| What is Lake Powell? Lake Powell is what legends are made of in a land of mystery and natural beauty. History tells us that |
| in 1869 while navigating the 200 miles between Cataract Canyon and Lees Ferry, Major John Wesley Powell named the area |
| Glen Canyon. Spurred by Indian reports in 1909 of a rainbow turned to stone, teams of scholars led by Indians discovered |
| Rainbow Bridge. Today, it is entirely possible to experience the same wonder the early explorers felt when they first saw |
| Glen Canyon. You will see the colorful rock layers that rise above the lake’s surface. The desert comes right to the edge of |
| the lake because fluctuating lake levels prevent plant growth along the shore. Look for bobcats and mountain lion, bighorn |
| sheep and ground squirrels frolicking among the cacti and rabbitbrush. Breathe in the fresh desert air as you gaze out over |
| the crystal indigo water of the lake that reaches out to caress the fiery orange cliffs. Everywhere you rest your eye a |
| thrilling sight waits to fill you with its vitality. Feel the Arizona sun pounding on your skin. Let it warm you to the very center |
| of your being, then plunge into the giant sapphire that lies at your feet. That is Lake Powell. If adventure is on your mind take |
| out a speedboat to explore Lake Powell with its 1960 miles (=3136 km) of spectacular shoreline! A full day of fun lets you |
| cruise deep into the narrow canyons and stop at isolated beaches to cool of in the crystal-clear waters. |
