We have been talking about taking a family Lake Powell trip for years now and finally succeeded! My parents and my cousins have never been there before and I absoutley love it so we decided to take a long weekend and go have fun. My parents went up early to pick the spot and we met up with them later. We just camped in the primitive camping at Bullfrog. When we got there it was so dark that getting to our campsite was quite a challenge, plus some of the roads were not too good for towing. The next day we took the boat out and went down this one canal. Steve thought it would be cool to get some wakesurfing pictures at the end of a canyon so we all decided to go. On my last run we ended up hitting a stick in the water and bent our prop!! We tried to find a boat shop to buy a new one, but the closest one was in SLC! (You would think they would have extra props everywhere at Lake Powell!) So we had no boat for the rest of the trip. It turned out ok though. We just hung out all day and floated in the lake. We played a little beach volleyball and lots of board games. Luckly our friends let us borrow their toy hawler so we had a place to get out of the sun! (It was really a trip saver!!) All in all it was fun! We should have brought an extra prop...lesson learned! I'm sure we'll go again next year.
