While many river runners see Lake Powell and Glen Canyon Dam as the leading threat to the Colorado River overall and to the Grand Canyon, there is a voice that wants to keep Lake Powell in place and full of water. To understand this viewpoint and reasoning, this episode explores this topic with the BlueRibbon Coalition and Powellheadz.

Glen Canyon National Recreation Area will not maintain the primary boat takeout for Cataract Canyon this year. Their announcement last month was a huge blow to members of the river running community. They say a 'no maintenance' strategy from federal managers puts the immediate future of running Cataract – a stretch of the Colorado River important for scenic values, tourism and science – into question. // And later, the Weekly News Reel! Sophia Fisher of The Times-Independent reports on Moab's tourism industry, the passage of the TRT bill, and a proposed resort northwest of Ken's Lake. Alison Harford of the Moab Sun News discusses the goals of Grand County Sheriff Jamison Wiggins, ongoing rebuilding efforts after the 2021 flood, and a new oral history exhibit at the Moab Museum. // Show Notes: // Photo: Continued downcutting at the North Wash Boat Ramp, the primary takeout for river runners at Cataract Canyon.

Lake Powell long has been the shimmering heart of Glen Canyon National Recreation Area in Utah and Arizona, but it's not the only asset of the NRA that covers 1.25 million acres.  This is Kurt Repanshek, your host at the National Parks Traveler. Last year I had the good fortune to visit Glen Canyon NRA twice –- once in May to kayak Lake Powell -- and then in July when I backpacked into the park's backcountry to not just admire its beauty but watch efforts to reverse the spread of invasive vegetation in the park. But not all is well with the NRA. A drought said to be the longest in 1,200 years has left Lake Powell at its lowest level since it began filling in 1963. It reached its full impoundment in 1980. But shrinking snowpack levels in the Colorado River drainage in recent years has failed to generate enough runoff into Lake Powell to more than offset the water running through the hydroelectric generating station in the Glen Canyon Dam. To discuss the state of Lake Powell, and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area as a whole, we've invited Glen Canyon Superintendent Bill Shott to join us. We'll be back in a minute with the superintendent.

Kurt Repanshek and Joe Miczulski, whose friendship dates back more than 50 years, take time from their sea kayaking trip on Lake Powell at Glen Canyon National Recreation Area to discuss the recent rush to public lands by Americans yearning to get outdoors during the coronavirus pandemic.

In recent years there has been a movement of sorts to rebrand units of the National Park System as “national parks,” a movement motivated in large part by the economic boost such a redesignation is hoped to have. In New Mexico there’s a group that’s opposed to turning Bandelier National Monument into Bandelier National Park. We discuss that issue with Tom Ribe, executive director of Caldera Action, a nonprofit advocacy group in New Mexico. And we continue our series on how the health of the Colorado River impacts Canyonlands National Park and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area in Utah. To get a better understanding of the river economics in play, we talk with Megan Lawson, an economist with Headwaters Economics.

This week’s show kicks off our coverage of the Colorado River and how its health, or lack of health, impacts Canyonlands National Park and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area in Utah. We also take a peek at Grand Portage National Monument in Minnesota and what awaits intrepid park travelers who put it on their to-do list.

Join us this week on a family trip to Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Arapaho National Recreation Area, and Mount Rushmore National Memorial. Then we take a look at Bill Clinton, painted in a blue dress and much more.

Seven Knots is a podcast about connecting community with science. This first episode is an interview with Lonnie Lonnie Pilkington, Natural Resource Manager, at the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, in Page, AZ. We talk about his years at the Park Service and several projects that are happening at the park.

If there's one place in our travels that has seemed a nearly hidden gem -- a place where hardly anyone goes, yet is full of incredible beauty -- it's the confluence of the northern tip of Grand Canyon National Park, where miles of the Colorado River are protected before they enter the canyon, and the southern tip of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. It's a serene place called Lee's Ferry, where the Colorado gently winds through vermillion cliffs. Rafters hit the first rapid here to begin the 88-mile journey to Phantom Ranch, the historic camping oasis nestled nearly a mile below the rim of the Grand Canyon. Wild horses roam the hills and can be spotted frolicking in the riverbed. But alongside the glorious beauty of the red rock set against the dark river and blue skies, long before it was the launching point for Grand Canyon rafters this historic place was the gateway to Arizona. It's the only place along the river for 700 miles that the riverbanks are directly accessible by land, making it an ideal crossing point, and today, the only place where you can get down into the deep cuts of the Colorado without hiking in. On this episode of America's National Parks, Lee's Ferry, part of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area.

On today's episode of your favorite RV Podcast, we talk about our top tips for keeping your neighbors happy with campground etiquette. Then we cover our short stay at an amazing place, the Lee's Ferry area of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, where we were able to experience Arizona's towering red rocks, vermillion cliffs, the Colorado River, Marble Canyon, the Navajo Bridge, wild horses, and Horseshoe Bend...all in the span of two days!

In this episode Donna visits with Nevada Barr, New York Times Bestselling Author of the Anna Pigeon mystery series. The Rope, Nevada's 17th book featuring the crime-solving park ranger, Anna, has just been released. The New York Times has called the Pigeon series, "Thrilling!"

The first of the 17, The Track of the Cat, was released in 1993 and was honored with both the Agatha and Anthony awards for best first mystery. Nevada's latest is a prequel set in the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area that surrounds Lake Powell and lower Cataract Canyon in Utah and Arizona.
