    Unless you were at Lake Powell in the 80's, you have no clue how serious this news is. I was there--the lake is going, going...soon to be toast 🌞🐪

      Are there alternate water sources that can be tapped if and when it dries up?

    There is a river under that lake and it will return. I would think a kayak company can make a living on a river.

    I understand that this current dry period (drought) is limiting the amount of water that's flowing into both Lake Powell and Lake Mead, however, there are also too many people there with many more moving in all the time. That would seem to be rather irresponsible to me.

      Eastern states suck no one wants to move there. They cant keep the Missouri-Mississippi from flooding all the time. They should just canal the water from there out west.
