    Indeed, very cool. checking the lake data, it has been rising ~1/2 a foot per day while and since we were there. Currently 56% full and 80' below full.

    I agree Alstrom is up there in the awesomeness scale. Still need to DL my pics and dig through them, will update thread once I do.

    Here is yours, water level just a bit higher. I wish there was more access to the lake itself given how many countless miles of trail are in UT, I am amazed that there are not more access points, especially on the east side.

    Yeah, that is where we camped the night after Alstrom and spent the day on the beach there. It was alright there, but lacked the awesome views and red rock that is around the rest of Powell.

    I posted 11 pics. you quoted 11 pics.
    although your quote makes it look like there's a big gap.

    I can only see the last four, but earlier I saw them all. :notsure:

    Also, did you see this on the page James linked?

    There are currently 4,453,430,379,526 gallons of water in Lake Powell!

    Google photos was being a PIA but I think I figured it out.
    I'll post some more photos here in a few and see for sure.

    Can you tell me how you're posting from Google photos. I can't seem to figure it out and I'm tired of loading them to imgur just to post them.
