History
Lake Powell was created in 1963 when the Glen Canyon Dam held back the waters of the Colorado River, forming a vast blue lake surrounded by beautiful sandstone walls on the border of Arizona and Utah. Remarkably, it took 17 years for the lake to fill the canyon to the high water mark (3700' above sea level), giving America its second largest man-made lake - and a playground like no place else on earth. In 1980, Lake Powell reached 'full pool' - 3700' above sea level for the first time. Since then, it's become the ultimate destination for houseboating vacations. Lake Powell is arguably the most scenic lake in America, situated in some of Southern Utah's finest red-rock desert country.
