2019 Lake Powell.



We're back. Albeit in a little different style this time than last. We elected to camp in the campground at Bullfrog and take day trips on the lake. Despite that we still spent a couple of nights out on the lake shore camping out of our beloved Geega.

We purchased Geega in 2001 as a used 1992 model year 19ft Marlin ski boat. She was named Geega after our wonder dog "Sitka" who passed in 1999. Kirk used to call Sitka, Geega when he was a baby. Used extensively at Topaz lake by Joannie and the boys while they were in high school and beyond and upgraded with a wakeboard tower installed by Joannie and the boys. On her first trip to Lake Powell in 2009 we shore camped for a week and traveled the lake with her. On this, her 3rd Lake Powell trip she performed flawlessly as always and was a joy to have on the lake.

Joannie, Wyatt and I were joined by Kirk who came up to meet us from the Phoenix area and a day later his new friend Macy. Unfortunately Scott, Cierra and Joey couldn't make it this time. We had a grand time visiting some of the canyons we have visited in the past as well hitting some new to us territory up lake from Bullfrog. It was unanimous though that on our inevitable next trip we will shore camp on the lake again.
