New Destination to the Travel Wish List


A few years ago my parents gave me this great video series for Christmas. It's a travel photographer video series mostly nature & landscapes, some people (India, Ethiopia, etc), now that life is slowing down, I've rediscovered them and taken to watching one or two again every night this week. The few I've watched have been on Alaska's glacier bay, India & the Ganges, and Ethiopia. Last night's struck me as it was the southwest: Arizona & Utah. He traveled to a place in Utah called Lake Powell. Now I know the southwest is known for lots of climbing (or maybe that's just because I associate rock-climbing-crazy Anthony with Utah). Climbing is not really my cup of tea. Though that area intrigues me. Anyway, I'd heard of Lake Powell, but didn't really think too much about it. The coolest thing about it is that you can explore it via, kayaks. The lake is surrounded by huge canyon walls. That sounds like my kind of adventure.
