#19118 Searching for Private Coves and Striking Canyons in Lake Powell, AZ

Lake Powell's towering red-rock buttes, crumbly sandstone arches, and winding canyons sculpted by nature's elements over millions of years are otherworldly. Boating on this man-made reservoir, which stretches between Utah and Arizona, brings treasures around every corner. It might be a sheer wall mottled with wind-eroded pockmarks that rises steeply from an azure pool, or a massive natural amphitheater in which you can't resist hollering a hearty, "Echo!" Perhaps you'll stumble upon long-abandoned cliff dwellings once inhabited by Ancestral Puebloans, or a secluded sandy beach that's ideal for camping under millions of stars in the clear desert sky. With more than 2,000 miles of rugged shoreline, Lake Powell beckons exploration by water.
