We have not visited, but it is a popular spot to view something unique. The river changes direction at this spot.. It is pretty far from Las Vegas, about 800 miles one way. I would go if I had the time. It is not part of the Grand Canyon National Park, it is administered by the Glen Canyon Nat’l Recr. Area. It has a convoluted administration. The parking lot for instance belongs to the City of Page, which charges fees. Some of the land is federal, some of it is native American. To see the bend a 1.5 mile round tripi hike is required. To wrap it all up, do not visit in the summer, be fit enough for the hike, and do not trespass on Indian land. Remember, here in the U.S. Indian reservations are really independent countries. Here is another strange thing, the visitors center is at least five miles distant from the trailhead. http://www.nps.gov

We take pride in supporting local artists and we donate this expensive space. This month we help an author of several books. They are: Nevada a Strange place, Silveropolis, and The Great Lake Mead Water Caper. I have read all three of them and thoroughly enjoyed them You could help by making a purchase. We thank you.
