Horseshoe Bend and Glen Canyon Arizona

Lake Powell is a man-made lake (second largest in the USA) and the dam built at the end is the Glen Dam which is the start of the Grande Canyon. Horseshoe bend is just down the river a short distance.
Looking back toward Lake Powell from the dam.

This is a view as the water leaves the dam. Notice the river rafts at the bottom of the picture. They have tours that go down the Colorado River into the canyon from here.

Horseshoe Bend which must be at least 600 ft. down. A great view. Below is Terry standing "on the edge" or at least as close as he wanted to go.
