2011-04-15 Glen Canyon Dam near Page, AZ

We drove out from Page, AZ to the Glen Canyon Dam.  It is a smaller version of the Hoover Dam but still very impressive.   There is a  grass section at the foot of the dam, but looks like a golf course for Karen and Frank.     There is a large reservoir to the north-west of the damn that accommodates large boats for fishing as well as house boats for the summer tourists.  The Colorado River flows south-west where zodiac boats give a tour of that side of the damn.  The bridge resembles the new bridge constructed over the Colorado River at Hoover Dam.
