| 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. By its wondrous size, to say nothing of its majesty and mystery, Rainbow Bridge has inspired |
| humans throughout time. From the time the bridge became known to the outside world in the early 20th century, thousands of |
| people from around the world have visited each year. From its base to the top of the arch, it is 290 feet-nearly the height of |
| the Statue of Liberty-and spans 275 feet across the river; the top of the arch is 42 feet thick and 33 feet wide. |
| Tucked among the rugged, isolated canyons at the base of Navajo Mountain, Rainbow Bridge was known for centuries by |
| the Native Americans who lived in the area. Native Americans living in the region have long held the bridge sacred. Ancestral |
| Puebloan residents were followed much later by Paiute and Navajo groups. Several Paiute and Navajo families, in fact, still |
| reside nearby. |
