Featured Album: Phil Pennington
Phil Pennington first saw Glen Canyon from an airplane while looking for some students who got lost during a University of California Berkeley hiking trip. He was astonished by the view of Glen Canyon from the sky and made a number of trips down in the years after. Phil meticulously photographed the unique landscape of Glen Canyon and used that photography in the fight to protect it.

Before its inundation, Glen Canyon was a wonderland of gorges, spires, cliffs and grottoes. After the dam, it became ‘the place no one knew.’ Below are images from various photographers showing the exquisite beauty that existed within the Glen. They are a special reminder of what was lost.
