Lake Powell, Page, Arizona
Page, Arizona is one of the popular adventure destinations in the Southwest. Aside from Antelope Canyon and Horseshoe Bend, Page is a popular boating destination because it is bordered by Lake Powell. Page is also the hub of the Grand Circle, being close to many spectacular National Parks of the Southwest.

Lake Powell is a reservoir on the Colorado River, the second largest man made lake in the US. Though most of Lake Powell is in Utah, but the Wahweap Marina, which is 6 miles West of Page is a very strategic location for most tourists exploring the Grand Circle.

ReplyDeleteHuge lake area.
ReplyDeleteWe have tried to get to Page several times and every time, the Marriott there is unavailable! We just traveled over to Parker and Kingman. Maybe next spring we'll make it to Page. I would love to explore the area around it!
ReplyDeleteI love the blue water at Lake Powell and fall colors you found in Page. Those look like some fantastic places to visit in your Grand Circle post too!

Merry Christmas and Sorry.
My husband went to Lake Powell a number of years ago on a business trip. It is a really beautiful place.
ReplyDeleteBetchai, that is one spectacular looking place, serene and not very crowded. I have not visited there but I just love Zion National Park which I visited one with forensic nurse friends after our conference in Las Vegas. We spent two nights there, clearing our minds from all the casino clamor and just visiting with each other and communing with nature.
