Lone rock
A singular rock coming out of the lake. The tour boats go around it during dinner cruises.

Sotally tober
Houseboats at Antelope Point Marina. Run by the same people who run the hotel at Bryce Canyon, Forever Resorts, it is to be turned over to the Navajo Nation after ten years.
Houseboats at rest
These are buoydocked. They pay 7.50 a foot to park in Wahwrap Bay, with no hookups. Docked boats pay 15.00 a foot.
The boat tour captains use these to judge which way the winds are blowing. Yesterday the winds blew so hard the floating dock at Rainbow Bridge blew away.
Floating restaurant
This, the new restaurant. Part of the privately owned houseboats marina. Construction was done out by Wahweap Beach then nearing completion was pushrd by barge to its newest resting spot. It has an upstairs dining area. Open air with a metal roof it should make for fun dining when the monsoons come.
Floating marina, smokestacks and The Sleeping Warrior
This is the marina with the privately owned houseboats. Most are timeshared and cost upwards of a milliin dollars. In the background is the coal powered energy plant on the Navajo Nation. Its one of the cleanest burning plants in the country if not the world with enough coal to power the Phoenix, Las Vegas and Los Angeles areas for two hundred years. To the left of the stacks is The Sleeping Warrior. Look closely from right to left and you'll see his feet, legs, torso, head and feather.
