Lake Powell and Glen Canyon Travel Guide

A joint effort by man and nature, Lake Powell and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area is a huge water park, with more shoreline than the West Coast of the continental United States. It's also a place of almost unbelievable beauty, where millions of visitors each year take to the water to explore, fish, water-ski, swim, or simply lounge in the sun. Read More

I plan to drive from Las Vegas to Lake powell this July and one of my passengers is afraid of being on roads that are close to high drop-offs with no guardrails. I am not familiar with this route and hope someone can tell me if there are many such areas or if the trip will be mostly flat. Any help will be appreciated. David
