We hiked up to Horseshoe Bend where the Colorado River wraps almost completely around a mountain that's inside a canyon. Pretty cool place.
We hiked Water Holes Canyon, a slot canyon on Navajo land which required a permit from their tribal office. It was tough to down climb into the canyon, but after that it was an interesting hike. The kids wore out before we made it to the end, so Daddy and I took turns staying with the kids while the other finished the hike. We were so glad we finished it because it was the best slot canyon we had been in, with walls so curved that you had to change direction every couple steps.
um, yah, that ladder looks safe...this is where we turned around.
The Marina has two pools that overlook the lake, boats and mountains. A beautiful place to relax, until you have to jump in the freezing water because someone thru a dinosaur in the deep end.
The kids had been wanting to ride on a boat, so our last day there we took them on a boat tour thru the Antelope Canyon waterway. They really enjoyed the ride and we were amazed at how narrow the curves of the lake became. At one point we had to back out of the canyon and turn around to leave.
This is a portion of the lake that we boated thru. Davis Dam is at the top right.

We also hiked Antelope Canyon, but that is so amazing it deserves its own post.
