(Lake
Powell) Page, AZ � August 2003 � Warm temperatures, glassy water, fantastic
fishing conditions and discounted houseboat rental prices are just a few

Kim Alverado, houseboater said, �The rock formations are beautiful. You can see so much more of the land. [With the lower water level,] you are able to hike into spots where we would not normally be able to reach. The kids are finding lots of coves to bring the kayaks into. It�s been really nice.� If you need more reasons to visit Lake Powell this fall, here are the Top 10 reasons: 10) Warm water � Lake Powell�s water temperature averages a comfortable 76 degrees in September and drops slightly to 69 degrees in October, allowing visitors to enjoy water sports and swimming throughout the fall season. 9) Sunny days and cool nights � Fall air temperatures maintain an average of 72 to 74 degrees, with highs ranging from the upper 70s to 80s and lows in the 60s to 50s, providing perfect weather for individuals participating in recreational activities such as hiking and canoeing. 8) Spectacular beaches � Recently voted one of the world�s best beaches by Men�s Journal, Lake Powell offers nearly 2,000 miles of pristine sandy shoreline � the perfect backdrop for camping, fishing or viewing the stunning scenery. 7) Fantastic fishing conditions� Fed by five rivers and filled with striped bass, trout and pike, Lake Powell offers perfect conditions for the professional angler or amateur fisherman.
