Lake Powell 2009


So My family went to lake powell this week.  It was really fun.  We hit the road monday morning and drove through price down to southern Utah.  It was Trent and I in a car, Eric, Matt and Dave in a car, and the parents in the Tahoe.  We got to the lake with enough time to put the boat in the water and do some cliff jumping and wakeboarding.  The water felt so nice and warm. 


The next day we spent boating around all day, finding canyons such as iceberg canyon for good water.  We got some good tube wars in, and then went back to the trailer for a nice BBQ beef dinner.  By the end of each day people were pretty tired.  So we started a t
he movie "What about Bob," but everybody went to bed before we finished it.

The following day we went to Hole in the rock (where pioneers crossed Glenn Canyon in the 1850's), Dangling rope marina, and rainbow bridge.  It was pretty neat.  Trent went back to provo that morning (thats why he brought his own car).  We saw some really cool canyons and an natural arch. 

The trip was pretty fun.  The last day we went to some old indian ruins and walked around them.  Then did some skiing and wakeboarding.  All-in-all the trip couldn't have been better and it was really fun to be with the family.  Hopefully some day we can do it again.
