Lake Powell, live cam updates

Just thought that I would share this website. Has about 5 cameras at the different marinas around the lake. Don't know if anyone has been to Wahweap lately, but I was just wondering if you have to follow the main channel to go up stream or if it is high enough to cut through.

If you look at the Wahweap cam, you can see that you still can't cross by Castle Rock, I think Peak Water elevation is normally around July or August at Lake Powell.

Actually I found a great website for the Lake Levels.

Looks like Castle rock still has at least 13 feet or more to go.

SITE/LAUNCH NAME -Castle Rock Cut-Off
MINIMUM SAFE ELEVATION - 3620.00
ABSOLUTE MINIMUM USABLE ELEVATION - 3612.00
CURRENT LEVEL VS. ABSOLUTE MINIMUM - 12.49 Below

last may the water rose three or four feet in three weeks. It will rise fast.

they should take some tnt over and blow a trench hehehehe

I wish they would let me dig a big trench then dredge it out and charge for passage. I would call it the castle rock canal.

I have been thinking this for years...think of how much fuel you waste going the long way around.

The wtaer will probably not come up enough this year to flood the castle rock route. So its best you plan on taking the Narrows . Weak snow pack in rockies is going to limit the water level increase this year. I tprobably will not get more than about 3612 at the most. To be safe it needs to be at least about 3618 to be wide enough and deep enough to pass through it.

Go to wayneswords.com and search on the forums there for daily updates on water levels and other stuff related to lake powell. It is a good source of information for Lake Powell.

Have fun.... I will be there in June and Sept.
