Fran West Flyabout over Lake Powell, Arizona/Utah

One of the best holidays I organised for myself was a trip to the Southwest of the USA last year.

Lake Powell and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area need to be viewed from both the ground and the air. So I rose at 5am for a 6am joyflight, with the pilot flying a route which took in some of the picturesque canyons, Rainbow Bridge and the dam.

The air was smooth and the rock formations were gradually being bathed in the early morning sunlight.


Dangling Rope Marina, on the Utah side of the lake, was worth getting up early for, wouldn't you agree? Sometimes the early bird gets more than just a worm!

Here's more information.
