Lake Powell is a First Block
Break (late September) tradition at The Colorado College.
And for the truly dedicated, 7th Block Break
(late April) as well.
I made the trip 5 times and treasure each one for their memories that
will last beyond my lifetime.
It is without a doubt an enviromental tragedy,
what with the erasure of Glen Canyon from the map,
but that happened before I was born, and Lake Powell's beauty cannot be
denied.
After an all-night drive through Colorado
and the Utah desert,
sleeping in the parking lot was always something to look forwad to.

- Milwaukee's Best!
Sometimes, aging can be a good thing
I love this picture for the contrast that is Powell in the
Spring
Partying all-day at Powell is serious
business.
Sometimes you just have to grab some shuteye when
-
and where you can. That lump at the deep end
of the
photo is a live human.
Upon their return, the staff at Halls Crossing and
other area marinas
regularly commended the Colorado College students
for their courteous use of the house boats :)
