This week we are in Lake Powell and we are able to compared our visit in 2016 to our visit in 2022 with regards to the water levels. Only one boat ramp is currently open at Lake Powell! The water levels are very sad. We then toured Lower Antelope Canyon…a spectacular sandstone slot canyon. The canyon is part of the Navajo Nation and has been closed due to Covid; we were thrilled that the canyon tours had opened again. Our tour was with “Ken’s Tours” started at 8:30am. Our weather was perfect with bright blue skies and warm temperatures! The rules…
