Horseshoe Bend, Page Arizona

Horseshoe Bend is the name for a horseshoe-shaped meander of the Colorado River located near Page AZ. The overlook is 4,200 feet above sea level and the Colorado River is at 3,200 feet above sea level making it a breathtaking 1,000 foot drop! The bend is locally known as "King Bend." It is located slightly downstream from the Glen Canyon Dam.

  1. I have been following your blog recently and LOVE it!!!! We travel and homeschool, but my husband's contract jobs keeps us in one place for 3 months at a time. Your blog is inspiring me for some future field trips!!!! We were out in AZ 3 years ago! It is beautiful there! Your pictures are breathtaking by the way!!!! Looking forward to many more!

  2. A horse riding exercise machine is one of the most exciting and fun ways for you to burn fat and tone up your core muscles without you having to step one foot outside your home.
