Album: Photographs of Legendary Glen Canyon, Before The Dam

Described by John Wesley Powell as a “land of beauty and glory”, and by Edward Abbey as “a portion of Earth’s original paradise”, magnificent Glen Canyon and its unique side canyons are unlike any in the world. Waterfalls, hanging gardens, spectacular narrows, arches, painted grottos, and picturesque alcoves abounded in the more than 125 unique side canyons. Glen Canyon also holds many secrets from the past, with more than 3000 documented ruins from ancient cultures.
