On Wednesday the 18th, I was up early again, to make the hour drive over to the Paria Contact Station, to try for a permit to go into North Coyote Buttes.
This was along the way, though I think this particular photo was from the day before.
This cowboy was trying to round up some business for his trail ride sight seeing business.
I didn't get a permit for North Coyote Buttes, so I got one for South. In fact, I don't think I even tried for North. Anyway, the permit was for the next day, so I went on to Page.
Glen Canyon and the glen Canyon Dam. My uncle helped build that dam. He mostly worked on the concrete forms. He said that on his first day on the job, they handed him a broom and told him to sweep the sand out of the bridge bearings.
Lake Powell
Notice The Beehive, to the left of the dam.
I went over to Horseshoe Bend, which is just outside of town.
After supper with my aunt and uncle, I went south. This is overlooking the Colorado River, before I crossed it.

My (great) uncle says that when they cut into it, during construction, the Native Americans were upset, since it was sacred. They protested that bad things would happen. "But of course, nothing happened," my uncle said.
