Lake Mead

We have a fun day in store for all of you! We will be kayaking north from Willow Beach on the Colorado River through Black Canyon.

About the Trip

Our Lake Mead Kayaking trip took place through Black Canyon on the Colorado River. It was just a day trip where students packed their own essential items. It was a fun and unique activity for a lot of students who attended as they had never been kayaking before or done something similar. This trip primarily included Las Vegas students as Black Canyon is close to home although a handful of Dixie State students participated in the trip as well. Students got to experience kayaking into the emerald cove in black canyon as well as learning more about The Outdoor Leadership Academy and The National Parks Service and how they work together to build the next generation of outdoor leaders.
