Drove from Mesa Verde to Lake Powell. Stopped at the 4 Corners Monument which is sponsored by the Navajo Tribe. This is the only place in US four states boundaries intersect. Travel after that and then stopped at the Navajo Nation Monument. It was another ruin that was found more intact than those at Mesa Verde. The site isn't on the scale of Mesa Verde. It was a self guided tour which was about 1.5 miles in length RT. The view from cliff side was pretty amazing. The entire drive to Lake Powell was just over 300 miles and again we went through some amazing country. The Vistas and scenery was very nice. Arrived in Lake Powell and camped at the Wahweep Campground. Lake Powell National Recreation Area was made by the construction of the Glen Canyon Dam in 1957. It's the second tallest dam in the US. The Hoover Dam is only 16 feet higher. After getting setup finally found the Packer Game at a local pub. Watch the Packers lose at the 48 State Taven. We also had a confusing time with the correct time. We were staying in Utah, everything we did was in Arizona and they are an hour behind us but don't recognize daylight savings time so it's real confusing at times...
