    We lived in Page for 11 years during the 80's and 90's. The lake was at full pool then and they had to open the spill gates to keep the water from going over the dam. Lone Rock Beach was a few feet from the parking lot. It all looked so very different. To me it truly is the most beautiful place in the country. Loved reliving it through you. Side story---my daughter and her new husband drove through the area on their honeymoon. She was only 10 when we moved. They drove to Lone Rock and got high centered almost immediately. I was trying to warn her when we lost the phone signal. That sand can be wicked!!

    You two have the best attitudes when it comes to bad situations. Unless it’s Tara’s creative editing! But I guess it could be worse. You could be where you were a few years ago. You know, no travel, no seeing our beautiful country, no spending time together, no new friends to make fun of when they sink in their canoe and lose expensive equipment. You better hang on to them. They actually waited for you to bathe Lucille before y’all left. That’s dedication. Chad, what other Navy buddy are you gonna see shove his betrothed through a small window, with her permission!? So glad I got to see that again! Thanks for including it, Tara. Next time, your turn! 😜 Another good time trip. Thanks guys. Troy

    Chad & Tara I love keeping up with your travels, sights and yes, frustrations. I like seeing the "real life" side of the RV life. I like seeing the chilly nights in the snow, the times when the tensions are high and all the "fails". Keep the great videos coming and be safe. You are making memories together. All the "fails" will just be laughter in the future when recalling the memories. Thank you for bringing us along on your travels.

    Last time we were at Lake Powell was in 1986-87…that was so long ago..we were stationed at Hill AFB. We really enjoyed Utah and camping in our 18’ trailer…good times boating on Lake Powell and we brought food and a stove and cooked on a beach. Thanks for another excellent video! Be safe.

  • @janelle7008
    @janelle7008 2 года назад +4

    Awe man!!! I grew up camping at Lone Rock beach. We would do 2 weeks of dry camping on the waters edge. My fondest memories are summers spent there. Our group would be anywhere from 10-15 rigs in a big horse shoe. And almost everyday around 3 the wind would roll through and it was a mad dash to put the awnings in and the tent shades down. It’s such a shame you keep missing out on being able to camp there successfully.

    I just caught this video! I vacationed at lone rock every year as kid growing up. Actually learned how to water-ski in one of those big coves. My mom would get in the water with us and my dad would pull me away on the ski leaving my mom behind. The Cove was large enough that she was safe. Such good memories. I just was at antelope marina this past June as I kayak and then hiked to Antelope Canyon. Just beautiful.

    The most likely reason no anchor was provided is that the depth of lake Powell is up to 560’ with average depth around 130’ so with a standard payout of 7:1 the amount of rode/line they would have to provide on average would be over 700’ which isn’t going to happen and the other thing that isn’t going to happen is you pulling up 700’ of rode and anchor.

    We stayed at the Antelope Point Marina rv park for ten days August 2020. No restrooms or laundry facilities yet, but we were told they're coming. They do offer cart rides back and forth from the park to the marina itself, which is very nice. We've been camping at Wahweap for years and have had far more bad service than good in that bar/restaurant. The newer one down on the dock is much better.

    The plugs in the bottom of a kayak are called scupper plugs and you are supposed to take a few out when in rapids or choppy water, this helps drain the water that gets inside the cockpit. It also looks like Phil and Stacy were at weight capacity for the kayak. I bet the kayak was rated for 375 to 400lbs max. They needed a longer and a little wider kayak.

    lake is about 90 to 100 feet down from the 1980s, they need to cut California off so it can fill up again. All the water that would be in Lake Powell, California has used and dumped to go to the ocean, if they had started desalination plant in the 1960s like they said they would then the lake would not be empty and they could use the ocean water which will keep rising like it has been for a few thousand years. But the millions of gallons they use could come from the ocean and not effect the lake levels and cause lakes to dry up.
