Lake Powell & Rainbow Bridge Travel Guide
Travel video about destination Lake Powell & Rainbow Bridge in The USA.
Wahweap Marina on Lake Powell is the second largest artificial water reservoir in the United States and the starting point of numerous boat trips.Lake Powell was created due to the construction of the Glen Canyon Reservoir. Beyond the two hundred and sixteen metre high concrete dam a unique labyrinth of deep canyons whose beauty has been compared to that of the Grand Canyon, now lies underwater. However, it was not only the landscape and the environment that was affected by the construction of the damn: early Native Indian settlements were also lost.Most of the three thousand-kilometre shoreline of Lake Powell consists of rock walls that are in bright contrast to the deep blue water of the lake. More than ninety neighbouring canyons and smaller ravines have also been covered by the waters of the damn.For many years Rainbow Bridge was only known to the local Indians and for the Navajo the natural monument located above the waters of Bridge Creek is a sacred place. Due to its incredible height of ninety-four metres and its span of eighty-eight metres, the majestic arch resembles a petrified rainbow. At dusk the spectacular colours of the landscape are one of the most memorable experiences at Lake Powell until the water and surrounding scenery become covered by the dark of night.

Rainbow Bridge from Lake Powell
Panoramic views of cliffs, mesas, beautiful Lake Powell, and of course the grand Rainbow Bridge make this one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Rainbow Bridge is located in Forbidden Canyon off of buoy 49, at the foothills of Navajo Mountain. The bridge is the largest known in the world, and is sacred to many of the Native American Tribes. It stands 290 feet high, spanning 275 feet. The top of the arch is 42 feet thick and 33 feet wide. The sheer size is a sight to behold. Hope you enjoy!

A day at Lone Rock Beach - Lake Powell - Page - Arizona - Utah - LeAw in the USA //Ep.44
We are living the American dream driving the Historic Route 66 from Chicago to Santa Monica but we are doing some detours to visit some places we like.
In this 44th episode, we spent a day at Lone Rock Beach at Lake Powell - Arizona - Utah. Enjoy the ride with us! ;)
Lone Rock is a solitary rock in Wahweap Bay in Lake Powell in Glen Canyon Recreation Area less than 10 miles (16 km) from Glen Canyon Dam. It is located within Kane County, Utah, United States.
Facing Lone Rock is the Lone Rock Campground accessed from Route 89. The beach is one of the few places in Glen Canyon Recreation Area where people can drive right to the water's edge.
Lake Powell is a reservoir on the Colorado River, straddling the border between Utah and Arizona, United States. Most of Lake Powell, along with Rainbow Bridge National Monument, is located in Utah. It is a major vacation spot that around two million people visit every year. It is the second largest man-made reservoir by maximum water capacity in the United States behind Lake Mead, storing 24,322,069 acre feet (3.0000830×1010 m3) of water when full. However, due to high water withdrawals for human and agricultural consumption, and because of subsequent droughts in the area, Lake Powell is currently larger than Lake Mead in terms of volume of water currently held, depth and surface area.
Lake Powell was created by the flooding of Glen Canyon by the Glen Canyon Dam, which also led to the creation of Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, a popular summer destination. The reservoir is named for explorer John Wesley Powell, a one-armed American Civil War veteran who explored the river via three wooden boats in 1869. In 1972, Glen Canyon National Recreation Area was established. It is public land managed by the National Park Service, and available to the public for recreational purposes. It lies in parts of Garfield, Kane, and San Juan counties in southern Utah, and Coconino County in northern Arizona. The northern limits of the lake extend at least as far as the Hite Crossing Bridge. A map centered at the confluence of the Escalante River 37°17′22″N 110°52′20″W with the Colorado River gives a good view of the extent of the lake.
Lake Powell is a water storage facility for the Upper Basin states of the Colorado River Compact (Colorado, Utah, Wyoming and New Mexico). The Compact specifies that the Upper Basin states are to provide a minimum annual flow of 7,500,000 acre feet (9.3 km3) to the Lower Basin states (Arizona, Nevada, and California).
Lone Rock Beach Campground is a large primitive campsite located on the shores of Wahweap Bay and adjacent to Lone Rock, a large isolated redrock formation. It is accessible to vehicles—you can drive right onto the sand and set up camp on the beach or nearby sand dunes. It is “Primitive”, meaning no designated camping spots, but you’ll find toilets, outhouses, RV dump, cold showers, potable water in the camp area. Jet Ski’s, boats and personal watercraft can be operated and/or anchored conveniently at the beach. The beach is about an 8 mile drive from Wahweap marina, but about half the distance by water. Many people use this location on holidays / weekends, so plan accordingly (no reservations). Remember to bring a porta-potty if you’re camping more than 200 yards from the outhouses—the park service regularly patrols this site and you’ll face fines if you don’t obey this rule. We also recommend driving on already-established car paths, as many people will tell you about getting stuck in the soft sand! Click Here for a printable guide with images and maps.
Park Operator: National Park Service
Fees: $10 per car.
Reservations: None.
Limitations: 14 consecutive days allowed per visit. 30 days per year.
Public Toilets: Yes. Flush toilets and rinse showers at campground info center. Outhouse toilets located on beach. Be sure to bring a Porta-Potty if you plan to camp a few hundred feet away from the porta-potties – Rangers regularly patrol the area to enforce.

On the Trail to the Rainbow Bridge National Monument, Lake Powell, Arizona, December 2015
On the trail from the boat dock to the Rainbow Bridge National Monument. The terrain is fairly flat and easy to walk on, and the walking trip takes about 30~45 minutes one way.
At the 0:20 mark, you can get a glimpse of the Rainbow Bridge National Monument in the distance.
Note that the water level is somewhat low at the moment, and that during rainy season, the water level is higher, and that there can occasionally be some severe flash floods passing through the area.

Horseshoe Bend is the name for a horseshoe-shaped meander of the Colorado River located near the town of Page, Arizona. It is located slightly downstream from the Glen Canyon Dam and Lake Powell within Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, about four miles south of Page. Accessible via a ¾-mile hike from U.S. Route 89, it can be viewed from the steep cliff with a breathtaking 1,000 foot drop.
