Start of the trip at the Glen Canyon Dam
Hard hats come off after we leave the dam.
We docked in Titusville FL to fly out to the Grand Canyon National Park for a week of discovery. On Tuesday we took a side excursion down the Colorado River from the Glen Canyon National Park to the Grand Canyon National Park. The Glen Canyon Dam is a concrete arch-gravity dam on the Colorado River in northern Arizona, United States, near the town of Page - about 2.5 hours from our lodge on the Grand Canyon south rim. It was a gently ride through some very beautiful views of the canyon that was cut into the earth by the river as well as wind erosion. We traveled through the famous Horseshoe Curve which we visited from the top later in the week. It was a great 4 hour adventure which words really can’t begin to describe. One must go themselves to appreciate it.
