Lake Powell Air, pre-Grand Canyon SFAR

Five airports on the most beautiful lake on the planet. 10 Feet over the glass at sunrise. Chasing horses on Cummings, Descending after takeoff at Bullfrog, Hite with venturi winds out of three canyons, Between spires in Monument Valley, scud running the Kaibab, pitching horseshoes at the Bar10 Ranch. Flying through the narrows at Mead at sunset.

Cowboy boots, dirt strips, movie stars.

The only downside was the mind numbing smell of Japanese puke. (Must be the raw fish) or the body odor of French women who have spent a week on the Colorado (two things in the world smell like fish and fish is one of them).
