The Gates of Lake Powell

The Gates of Lake Powell


We reached Lake Powell, the world's second largest manmade lake and another national park area. If the hoodoos of Bryce were reminiscent of Mars, Lake Powell was more like a blasted moonscape -- sterile, monolithic forms with dusty beaches and a mirror-like surface to the lake.

At this point, we bit the bullet and bought an annual pass to the national park system. Bonus: If you had already paid for earlier park visits, they applied that as a credit towards the cost of the actual pass.
