2015-09-20-Lake-Powell-Houseboat: Lake Powell Houseboat trip on WildWind II, with "Raven", Glastron GX 205 ski boat, and another ski boat. Nine people on this trip, we went downstream from Bullfrog Basin to the Escalante, with a hiker sortie to "Hole in the Rock". Our first night was at Annies Canyon, which once again was amazingly available. We spent two nights there, then two nights at Bowens Canyon, one night in the Escalante, then on the way back one night in Iceberg Canyon. After Saturday cleanup, we spent the night on the west shore of Bullfrog Bay. Fun, fun, fun... water skiing, wakeboarding, wake surfing, hiking, eating and reading... relaxing! You should come along some time!
