That's amazing! That could have turned out to be a lot worse then it was. There have been some other videos in the past few years of flash floods at Powell. Just amazing!

That first one looks like Niagra Falls, wow, I always say, don't fool with Mother Nature.

That 2nd one "are they safe over there?" Explains where those sandy beaches came from. Note to self, stay off the sandy beaches when visiting Lake Powell

In 95' we went on a houseboat trip to Powell. Big mistake! Choosing your crew is as important as choosing your beach. 3 out of 12 knew about boating and seamanship. The rest were useless complainers. Well, 5 days in the bitching about not having a sandy beach had hit its peak. The useless 9 had found their sandy beach. A full day waisted moving everything and they were happy. The 3 of us were exhausted and turned in early. That night a wind came ripping through that canyon like you wouldn't believe. Mooring lines broke, spikes bent, it was insane! Most of us had been sleeping up topside to enjoy the stars. 4 of the useless 9 stayed up topside to watch us 3 work to save everything. Next thing I see is 4 bodies flying through the air. A gust of wind picked them up in their sleeping bags and carried them 30' before hitting the water.
It was a long night, very little equipment damage and a lot of bruised egos.
That vacation ended 1 marriage and 5 friendships.
