Arriving at Lake
Powell
When you enter the Glen Canyon National Park you will
be required to pay a national park use fees for vehicles and boats.
A regular entrance
permit is good for 7 days, remember that!
If you are houseboating you will typically stay for 7
or 8 days. So when you leave the park, remember, you cannot come
back in without paying again. This may seem obvious, but many
groups will send a couple people into town to pickup some things at the
store or fast food while others stay behind to clean up the boat, pack
the RV, or wait for others on the lake. When they return to
pick them up to go home they forget their pass has expired. Bingo,
another $15 please.
Another tidbit to be aware of is toilets. If
you plan to camp on the shoreline of the lake you must have a toilet.
They will ask you to show your toilet at the entrance when you arrive. If you get
caught camping without a toilet you will be fined by the NPS rangers,
it's a source of revenue. You might say that's a bunch of pooh.
