Glen
Canyon National Recreation Area (NRA) offers unparalleled
opportunities for water-based & backcountry recreation. The
recreation area stretches for hundreds of miles from Lees Ferry
in Arizona to the Orange Cliffs of southern Utah, encompassing
scenic vistas, geologic wonders, and a panorama of human
history. Additionally, the controversy surrounding the
construction of Glen Canyon Dam and the creation of Lake Powell
contributed to the birth of the modern day environmental
movement. The park offers opportunities for boating, fishing,
swimming, backcountry hiking and four-wheel drive trips.
