Desert Adventures: One Lake, Six Friends, Endless Activities
In the 1960s, the 700-foot-high Glen Canyon Dam, an artificial marvel, transformed a vast stretch of sandstone canyons into a desert oasis, creating one of America’s most unique playgrounds for adventure: Lake Powell.

And for one group of six friends, they did just that, and this dramatic landscape was theirs to enjoy for a long weekend. [...]

Secrets of the National Parks
This roving journey’s objective was to uncover the true secrets of the national parks. Of course a visit to multiple parks was on the itinerary, but so were meetings with experts from the present day and recreated from the past: a paleontologist in Arches and Canyonlands, John Wesley Powell in the Grand Canyon, and Teddy Roosevelt in Yellowstone to name a few.
