On to Page Arizona

Captains Log September 15 – Today we drove to Page, AZ which was about an hour by the time

we checked in and set up the RV. On the drive we drove thru Marble Canyon which was very colorful. We didn't leave early so we could check in when we got there and not have to park and wait for our spot.

Once we got settled in Bill, Melissa and I went to Horseshoe Bend. Once you park it's 1.5 miles to walked the trail to the overlook. There were quite a lot of people coming and going. It's downhill to the overlook and they built 2 “rest areas” along the way. You need to carry your own water as there is none available along the trail.

The view is awesome. The river is about 1,000 feet below the rim. We could see the waves made by the boats but could barely see a boat. The center is an island and you can raft, canoe or boat to it and relax or picnic. Along the view area are huge rocks you can climb on and get other angles of the bend. Great place to visit!

We took a drive around Page and it borders

Glen Canyon National Park. We parked and took pictures of the new bridge from Page and you can see the Dam behind it. We will plan to drive over into Glen Canyon on another day!
