Had to bump this as we are getting excited for our first trip of the season to Powell... This footage was from 2 years ago when lake levels were extremely low and this year the water is currently 46 feet higher (3586'). 🏆

I was looking at the water level. We were there one day in April of 2022. They said the water was 60 feet lower at the time. Crazy to think of how different it must be. Hoping to make it next year about this time as it looks like July is the highest level for the year.

Beaches are better just after water drops a few feet. You're stuck in the weeds when it's rising. Most of that gets washed away on the rise, then usually fresh and clean as she recedes.

I have been back in Face canyon twice in May… there are not many beaches, but one good beach off to the right about half way in. West has better sandy beaches at the entrance, enough for a couple house boats. I always end up in the South East canyons in my cruiser because I don’t need more than 10-15 feet of sand. Good luck! I saw a couple houseboats in face drilled and pinned last month also…

From summer last year, we got the jet skies in as far as we could and then swam deeper into slot canyon.
