If the colors and curves of Reflection Canyon don’t leave you breathless, the journey to get there will. Deep in the backcountry of Utah’s Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, this secluded wonder requires a 50-mile drive down dirt roads and a 20-mile round trip hike to find. Only experienced hikers should attempt this adventure. Trekking over unmarked, rugged terrain with only the water and shelter you can carry is not for the faint of heart. But we can all enjoy this incredible picture. Photo by Wan Shi (www.sharetheexperience.org).

Reflection Canyon Early mornings on Lake Powell are so tranquil.  There has been no watercraft traffic or winds to stir up the water.

Turn here to go to Reflection Canyon. The directions were hike about 7 miles, not to close to the cliff, but not too far away either. Then when you see this cliff turn left. No official trail just follow the footprints. Sounds like a nice adventure.
