Kayaking to Antelope Canyon from Lake Powell

[@steveelliott1160]

You can"t beat Tina's reaction. She makes these videos fun to watch.

[@JerryArizona]

That is Tina 24/7. She's fun to have around.

[@michaelfoley6670]

I find running the gauntlet of glitzy houseboats amusing! Thanks again for sharing your adventures!

[@Sam-nn3en]

Wow, the two most surprising things were definitely something to keep in mind. I never knew that among all the other videos that I saw about kayaking to antelope Canyon. Thank you for keeping it short and up to the point and no fluff .

[@meropetied]

I swear, watching you guys go on adventures is a good time. It's not just the photography and the details. It's great to get that for sure of course. It's that you're a comedy duo. Tina's reactions to your goofy jokes and prompts are always so genuine -- and of course it's great to see you two as a team. It's just really sweet. And fun! But, frankly, I showed a friend your Maroon Bells saga last night and he loved the drama of it. Having you separated and coming back together at the end was even more dramatic. Which is funny, because of course in real life we tend to want to avoid dramatic situations if we can! 😄 But yeah, watching you two struggle with the wind on the lake and handling the challenge was great. Seriously, you guys handled it very well.

[@JerryArizona]

Thanks for this comment. Glad you enjoy the videos. We have a good time out there. This was quite the adventure. Sometimes it's dramatic, sometimes it's mellow. But that's why we love this stuff.

[@Dirtbag.G]

This has been on my list for a couple of years!

[@JerryArizona]

It was quite an adventure. Go check it out. But if you don't hurry, you'll probably have to walk from the marina. That lake is getting low.

[@cathymoore1739]

Ugghh...stinking mud is the WORST. I understand that WIND plus boat traffic...Whew!! Glad you made it back. Always an adventure!

[@JerryArizona]

A little too much adventure at a couple spots.

[@TheNotLostNomad]

Heck yeah man, definitely looks like an adventure! I loved how you blamed the "rotten A**" smell on the mud!

[@JerryArizona]

It was the mud...I swear it was the mud.

[@FlewTheCoop]

Oh thanks. My wife laugh spat the bite of food she just took before hearing the "rotten ass" comment. We enjoy your content. Keep it up!

Good stuff and loved how you explained the trip at the end.

[@scottsatterthwaite5056]

Sooo cool. Your vids always make me feel like I'm there with you and simultaneously really jealous that I'm not! Thanks for the helpful advise. I visited the better known section not long ago but had no idea you could kayak in from the lake side as well. And now we know what "a hat on a hat" really looks like.

[@MamaBudz]

I can’t Unhear Tina say “rancid ass “ lollll

[@martinforrester8249]

An interesting view of another section of Antelope. I visited the other much more photogenic section in 2003 on Navajo lands. Expensive entrance fee but it was much quieter in 2003. There was a plaque in memorium of 11 visitors who died in a flash flood 12 August 1997. I was in the area during that time but hadn't chosen to visit . It had rained heavily over 20 miles away and followed oroyos to Antelope, which was filled to the brim, 120 feet high. Two souls were never found. Always check surrounding weather forecasts prior to venturing down any slots.

[@JerryArizona]

Recently hiked Zion Canyon Overlook Trail and Pine Creek was raging down below. Having gone through the guts of Pine Creek several times, I just can't imagine what it's like in those slots when they flash.

[@dixielambrecht7009]

"Hats everywhere" sounds like a Dr. Seuss book. That return trip sounds way to scarey for me and my fear of deep water. But I just love slots and your out takes always make me laugh.

[@JerryArizona]

The golf cart driver on the way in said the water was 350' deep at the marina. That freaked me out. Coming out with the waves and wind, I had a couple moments I looked down at the water and couldn't wrap my head around that kind of depth.

[@Katmai_Bear_480]

[@alisondailey3834]

Tina tells it like it is. And ~ you are fortunate to not have gotten seasick on the kayak... as happened to me - on what I thought was going to be an adventure - yea, I would take Dramamine before getting into a kayak again. Here in MD we have nothing like the canyons out there ~ but the AT & C&O close by for fun. Love your vlogs & dusty dry sense of humor ~ Jerryeee!!

[@JerryArizona]

I lived in MD for a while! I miss the seafood out here in the desert. Not the Baltimore/DC traffic so much. I also get seasick, but didn't have the time since I was too concerned about making it to the marina instead of being blown downstream to the Glen Canyon dam.

[@alisondailey3834]

@@JerryArizona Jerryeee lived in MD!! ~ such an itty bitty world! & we are spoiled with delicious seafood ~ picking hardshells is a skill. You really had no worry of being blown to the dam w/ Tina as captain of the kayak; even at the front - she's got your back. Lucky You. Be Safe.

[@jonathansmith8291]

Perfect timing! We are doing this next month but I was having trouble finding up to date info,,,thanks!

[@JerryArizona]

Enjoy! Side note; we wanted to combine this with the jeep tours from the top later in the day. I think they're like 1.5~2 hours (most of them) so it would've been a long day, but probably doable. Last time I'd checked, you just showed up, stood in line and went. Now they have an online reservation system and it was all booked. So if that's part of your itinerary, plan ahead.

[@dmerth]

I broke a few of those suggestions when on Lake Powell in October doing the same trek. First time we had kayaked the made it interesting. Was choppy both ways that day on Lake Powell. Had a few of those wave moments you mentioned. Turning into the wave was the ticket. Yeah... not best idea but worked out. You managed to kayak further in then we could because the water level was a bit lower in October I suspect. You licked out getting a golf cart ride. We walked up that long steep ramp after this tiring adventure.

[@JerryArizona]

Glad you made it. Sometimes being right on the edge of your comfort zone makes things extra fun. It did not help that the golf cart driver told us the lake was 350' deep at this section. That depth makes my head spin. Definitely would not have enjoyed a walk out at the end.

[@dmerth]

@@JerryArizona jeez. No one mentioned 350’ to us. You’d need a fairly good diver to retrieve me from the bottom of that. Sadly next your the depth will be significantly less no doubt.

[@dmerth]

Hi Jerry! Just passing info along worth noting for your viewers. Last Tuesday, I survived a kayak incident on Lake Powell after leaving Antelope canyon. The trip in was with calm waters and the forecast was good for the entire day. When leaving the canyon and into the main lake, the winds and waves kicked up. The wind was so strong we were making no progress into the wind. Long insane story short, my kayak submerged in the 48 degree water along the area where the walls are like 200' shear cliffs. I repeatedly and unsuccessfully tried self rescue techniques to flip the kayak over and get inside but the kayak was almost completely submerged making that impossible with no help. All the while, watching my wife fight the wind and waves, I lightly held to her kayak so as to not flip her over. An experienced kayaker (with a "legs inside" kayak) appeared and stabilized one side of my kayak as another on-the-top kayaker held the other side. I was in the water (with a PFD) for 30 minutes before being able to get "inside" the mostly submerged kayak, but remained cold and wet. Hypothermic and confused, I thought it was over for me. I keep asking myself how in God's name can an on-the-top kayak become completely submerged? I was more than 110 lbs under the weight limit for the kayak. Had it not submerged I would have been able to get back inside and would have returned to the calmer waters of the canyon. This is the closest to death I've ever been. I'm trying to find lessons from this. Perhaps one is that nature can take a bite out of your ass anytime she chooses. Another, inspect rental kayaks yourself for issues and learn what those issues can be? This is my second time kayaking into Antelope and will be my last.

[@anthonyhitchings1051]

Thanks for the good debriefing, wind also sucks big time in a canoe :-(

[@billythephoenix]

Great info and well edited Jerry. We'll be riding our sit down Waverunners there later this week. I've been to Lake Powell seven times and have never seen any snakes. As far as rattlers go, I don't like running across those little bastards either....I love that ending! Tina, tell us what you really think! ✌😎

[@JerryArizona]

Enjoy! We got to rent jet skis for a day on this trip and it was incredible. Much preferred to paddling. And I don't think that Tina will ever be a kayaker.....

[@elifemrealp7657]

Hi, time difference within Page caused by Arizona versus Navajo nation (when in Antelope Canyon). Great video, thanks!

[@tenabar4555]

Thank you for the real deal!!

[@bobbafett7407]

I do the trip on my paddle board 😬 and yes, it could be challenging at times. Last year a couple of times people fell off the boards and kayaks capsized like in a video game 🤣, still was fun though 🤘 it makes it feel like an epic adventure Pictures from Antelope look like that because they use a filter. If you take the paid tours, guides will tell you that to get that effect you need to enable “vivid warm” filter 👍

[@JerryArizona]

Yeah, it definitely felt like quite an adventure. I liked kayaking in...coming out I felt that we might've gotten in over our heads. But fun to talk about after you make it back to the marina. I need to do the tour from the other side. If for no other reason than to get Tina's reaction (she hates tours). I know most of those pictures are oversaturated. I just thought there might be some sections where it was tigher and had all the curves like the upper section. Still absolutely beautiful though.

[@robhebbs7960]

You can check the wind , but good luck being at lake powell without wind. Very good info Jerry . 8000 Views , Good for you.

[@aimsventures]

I did this last May and it was amazing!

[@johnfilce9236]

Yes, the cross chop from boat traffic and wave echos off the canyon walls is hard to paddle through. Add wind and it just gets harder.

[@JerryArizona]

We learned this the hard way.....Still worth it.

[@AllyPenguin]

I've been to Lake Powell many times and never knew there was that call box to get a ride up. I always waved them down like a crazy person. 🙃🤣

[@JerryArizona]

The call box was not entirely helpful. For all I know, they just said "carts will be there when they're there. Just wave them down like you're a crazy person". Maybe you're doing it right.

[@jeffbluhm7314]

Great adventure, hope you have plans to possibly check out some of the canyons that have emerged during low water, bet there is some great stuff that nobody has seen since the dam was built.

[@JerryArizona]

We explored around on Seadoos the day before. Absolutely mind blowing. I need to do more homework to find some lesser known places to explore on the lake.

[@jeriludvik3337]

When we were there just a month ago someone gave us their 7 day pass because they said that their America the beautiful pass didn’t work. We didn’t kayak just walked around. Never kayak when windy or a busy boat traffic. Don’t give up on kayaking you can really see some beautiful places that you can’t see when hiking. It’s a shame how low the water level is.

[@1bigbillz]

Great vid

[@primarytrainer1]

imagine how beautiful this area would be and how much more there would be to explore if there wasn't a dam

[@JerryArizona]

If the water levels keep dropping, we'll get to find out!

[@climbjt]

Picked up an Old Town “Vapor” in November. Gonna spend some time on Powell this year before it’s gone. It’s like watching an old friend dieing. So sad

[@JerryArizona]

It's shockingly low. I remember a few years back going to Reflection Canyon and worrying it would be too high to show the 'spines'. Now I bet you could hike to Lone Rock.....We rented Seadoo's on this trip and couldn't figure out how to get to Labrynth at first because the route shown as lake on our GPS was about 20' above the water line.

[@climbjt]

@@JerryArizona I’ve owned several boats, and spent a lot of time on Powell and Mead in the eighty’s and nineties. Those lakes, and the dams that created them, provided ways for people to see landscapes that would otherwise be seen only by very few hardcore explorers. I’m glad I had access while they were in their prime. It took a long time for them to reach full pool, and that was when there was plenty of water flowing down stream. Sadly I don’t think I’ll live long enough to witness their return. I enjoy your videos, and have visited some interesting places because of them. Getting ready to head back to Ouray for the new via feratta. Thanks for the tip!

[@Evi-wb5tx]

Did Tina not enjoy it? This was the highlight of my Arizona trip and we did a lot lol. To each their own. Awesome video 😊

[@JerryArizona]

We both enjoyed it. The kayak trip out was rough for a couple of rookies. I'd rather hike the extra miles through Buckskin gulch, personally though. That place has ruined all other slot canyons for us.

[@jamieh3157]

We did this kayak on April 1, 2022 and carried our kayaks up and down that 50 feet of steep gravel you pointed out. It was crazy! Also kayaked horseshoe bend and camped at the bottom on the same trip. Love that area of the world :) Also, did you get a chance to walk out to Lone Rock? So sad! There are people camping in trailers right where there used to be water. Bizarre.

[@JerryArizona]

Oh my god. I'm catching up on comments and was joking on some about how I bet you could walk to Lone Rock. You actually CAN? The lake levels are so low. We rented Seadoos the day before this and couldn't find the route I had marked. We finally figured out it was because it was above the water line!

[@A-K_Rambler]

Jerry u da Man! Has there been any Monolith sightings about the area?

[@narwhal004]

This is the lower section of lower antelope canyon. Upper antelope is the one where most of the pictures are at. There is a tour that also goes from the top through the best parts of lower antelope but it is a circus.

[@JerryArizona]

Yeah, we looked into the Upper section tours. I wanted to do one the same day, but didn't plan ahead enough and they were booked out. Still, I had done no research on lower except asking my friend about it and didn't know what the canyon itself would look like. I figured it would have some sculpted sections like upper, but not really. Figured I'd throw that in for anyone else who didn't know.

[@jimconlow3992]

Awesome vid, heading to AZ Labor Day we, Sedona, GC and antelope/ lake Powell resort, ending in phoenix or Scottsdale, let me no best bets/vids

[@JerryArizona]

Wow. That's....a lot of ground to cover. I actually have videos rating 11 trails in Sedona, 8 hikes near Page and recently a backpacking trip to the Grand Canyon. You can check those out for some ideas. I have so many individual videos on things around all those areas that I'm not sure where else to start. But if you check those videos out and have questions, let me know.

[@JazzBanjo]

We did this last year except we were able to launch from the "official" boat ramp. Shocking to see how low the water has gotten.

[@JerryArizona]

It's insanely low. We need a nice monsoon season.

[@AllyPenguin]

I'm not sure if you've already done it but another good one that people kayak to from Antelope Point marina is Labyrinth canyon. I've only been by boat and it's been a few years so I don't know how low it is but it really is like a maze in some sections and gets pretty narrow while still on the water.

[@JerryArizona]

We went up Face and Labyrinth the day before, only we were lucky enough to be on Seadoos. Still have to finish that video.

[@AllyPenguin]

@@JerryArizona ahh, so fun!!

[@ronniea.4830]

We "fondly" call the pass from Antelope point marina to the entrance to the canyon the "bathtub" too much traffic causes large wakes that even a small boat and jet skies can have trouble moving there. some boats will zoom into the canyon pretty fast need to watch out.

[@JerryArizona]

We were so unprepared for that part. And the wind! We were paddling like crazy and just standing still. Honestly felt like we were in over our heads a couple times on the way out, especially given our lack of experience in kayaks.

[@ronniea.4830]

@@JerryArizona glad you made it safely. Lake Powell can be so moody

[@saracondit6031]

Look into kayaking black canyon below the hoover dam. Its amazing. Love the video.

[@JerryArizona]

Thanks for the recommendation. Is that the one to Emerald Cove? That's been on the list for a long time.

[@saracondit6031]

@@JerryArizona yes. Emerald cove is disappointing but peridot cave is pretty neat. It is located right above the AZ hot springs. It is a long paddle if you start at willow beach and go up. We did it in 1 day. Couldnt feel my arms at the end of it. Its 8 miles up to it and then 8 miles back. A lot of people will camp along the river. I Plan on doing that next time and making it to hoover dam. There is a guide service that will dropped you off at hoover dam. This is the only way to be able to launch at hoover dam. They have kayak rentals through the guide business. We have our own kayaks and wanted to be cheap. So we did it the hard way. I do have a video of it on my page. 😊

[@TrekkingPals]

Great video! You guys rented from Antelope Point Marina?

[@JerryArizona]

Yup. Really convenient; they drive you down there, set the kayak in the water and off you go. The self launch isn't far so you aren't adding much kayaking. And launching from there looked sketchy since the water is so low.

[@zachpan1468]

Did it last May. There are still some outfitters launching from board ramp. Back then the water level is already 20 ft below the end of the ramp. You just have to drag the kayak all the way back. The picture at 01:43 is shocking.

[@JerryArizona]

It is unbelievable how low it is. I swear you can walk to Lone Rock right now.....

[@MissJManobianco]

Do you think Lake Powell is worth visiting now with low water levels? Is the water deep enough for boats?

[@JerryArizona]

Absolutely worth visiting. Actually, it's in a unique condition with the water so low. Bet there are places out there that you can visit that have been underwater for years. As for depth, just stick to the main channel/river. The person driving the golf cart said the water was 350' deep at Antelope Point Marina. So definitely deep enough for boats; you just need to keep an eye out for rocks if you get out of the main channel.

[@MissJManobianco]

Thank you so much for the reply! I'm from Tucson and love all of your hiking videos! I will proceed with my trip to Lake Powell for memorial day weekend! 😎

Yeah. It's crazy low right now. On the plus side, there are now places to explore out there that people haven't had a chance to see since the dam was built.

[@wambomambo5722]

did u have do bring your rented kayaks to the Launch Ramp by yourself or did the kayak rental helped u?

[@JerryArizona]

We rented from Antelope Point Marina. They had everything right there at the marina; kayak was in the water and ready for you to hop in and take off. Same when you're done. Dock at the same place, get out and head to your car. They handle the rest.

[@TreDeuce-qw3kv]

Wind_ Small Craft Warnings begin @ around 20-mph(depending on area). A small craft is any craft under 66-ft. I have done a considerable amount of Kayaking, almost the entire Pacific Coast BC to Mexico and the Sea of Cortes, the Everglades, Caribbean, and many rivers and mountain lakes, and any wind not at your back is a strain, Add in chop and surfing waves and it is no place for the inexperienced. For a kayak, any sustained wind over 8-10_mph that is not at your back(depending on sea state) is a decision point.

[@ashleylatona6784]

How east was it to get the kayak from the launch point down into the water? We were discussing with one kayak rental company who said that they would bring the kayak to the launch point for us but we would need to hike it 50 ft down to the water then back up to return the kayak. Did you have to do this? If so how difficult was it? If you didn’t have to do this, what kayak rental place did you use? Is the low water level a problem? Thank you for your help!

[@ashleylatona6784]

And how long did it take to get back out from the canyon to the marina with the boat traffic?

[@JerryArizona]

If you look at about 1:42 in the video, it shows the launch you're probably talking about. Since the lake is so low, the concrete/asphalt of the launch stops maybe 50' above the water. We saw people carrying their kayaks down the rocky cliff from the launch and back up. It didn't look fun, but plenty of people were doing it. We rented from Antelope Point Marina. I put a link in the description of the video (I forgot to before.) You can see them putting the kayak in the water around 1:16 over Tina's shoulder in the video. If you rent from them, you step off the marina into the kayak and you're on the lake. It shows us docking back there toward the end. (FYI, we got our full deposit back a couple days later.) The low water wasn't really a problem, unless you're launching from the other boat launch; the marina floats in the lake so it's always at lake level. Not sure how long it took us to get back out. It's not that far. But the wind was very tiring. At one point I spotted a huge wake from a boat coming at us from the side and we turned directly into it. That ended up being a good move. Pay attention or you might be capsized.

[@melbanks2271]

👍

[@marynduron]

I think the pictures people post are in the upper antelope valley canyon and when you kayak it’s the lower

[@JerryArizona]

Definitely. I've done upper and lower. Just need to do the middle section. Definitely more slotted up at the upper sections.

[@marynduron]

@@JerryArizona ok have you done them both in one day? I want to make a day trip out of it

[@JerryArizona]

@@marynduron I think it would be tough to do them both in a single day. The kayaking definitely takes longer than the upper section though.

[@missnorcal]

Are the carts to and from the boat launch available to anyone or only that specific company you rented your kayaks from? We are renting from another company and want to see if the carts are available to everyone.

[@JerryArizona]

I'm not sure. But they did not ask us for any documentation or proof we rented from the marina. So I'd think you would be fine. Just hit the call box and ask for a ride. But I'm not sure if you're bringing the kayak from the lot if they will transport that for you. Not sure where you'd put one on a golf cart.

[@katiaplasse4120]

Hello, how long did YOU take to reach antelope canyon by kayak? Thanks😊

[@JerryArizona]

I'm guessing because I wasn't paying that much attention, but I would say maybe 30~45 minutes to antelope and maybe another 15~20 into antelope to get to where we had to beach the kayak and walk. Overall the trip took about 6 hours, I think. It was slower coming out because of the wind and choppiness of the lake.

[@joshuamorales7845]

question for you Jerry or anyone else in the comments. My wife and I are going in May, We are going back and forth between this exact route or a guided tour of the lower upper canyon. We like Jerry are not avid kayakers. watching it has us thinking the wind an waves may not make this as worth the upper canyon. thoughts from anyone who has done both would be helpful. thanks

[@JerryArizona]

Check out my video from a while back for the back haul from Lee's Ferry to the Glen Canyon Dam. That was our first kayaking trip and much easier than this one. I'd suggest considering doing that and then doing the upper Antelope tour from the Navajo Nation side. Just make sure you plan in advance because we wanted to do Antelope from both ends but they were sold out when we were there.

No bathrooms after you leave the dock. Enjoy! I will say that the lake coming out was rough. Add in the wind and there were a few moments where we wondered if we'd get out. But we're not big kayakers. I'm sure people with more experience wouldn't think twice about it.

We are from Michigan and came to Antelope Slot canyon in Sept 2020 with reservations but they were closed because of Covid. We were tempted to do the kayaks but didn't and now I am glad I didn't because it is not as colorful as the real Lower Antelope Slot. We came back in Sept 2021 with reservations and what a beautiful slot the lower section is. I recommend it to everyone.

Do you need a permit for the hike? What is the distance from the marina to the beach where you start hike?

[@JerryArizona]

I don't think permits are required for this section. And I'm not sure on distance. It wasn't that far, but the lake can get pretty rough and with wind it can be challenging if you aren't an experienced kayaker (we are not). I recommend contacting the marina (link in the description) for more details.

All kayakers hate boaters and jet skiers. And if we are honest, boaters I believe many, try to fuck with us kayakers. I have too many stories to tell, and one where I wound up calling the police. Boaters love to drink and boat, and kayakers are for adventure, and a good workout.

Hey jerry how much u pay to enter to altelope canyon?

They accepted our America the Beautiful card ($80/year and works at all national parks and many other places) so we didn't pay. I think the fee is $15~25 depending on the vehicle and amount of people, but I'm not 100% sure. You can Google "Antelope Point Marina Entrance Fee" for better info.

[@lennychica5085]

I saw they also offer boat rentals...can you get there by boat?

[@JerryArizona]

You can go up the canyon until it gets too narrow. Not sure if you can and then swim in from there. It will also depend on the lake level. It's raised a lot since we were there so I'm not sure how far in you can get now. Where we landed is probably 20~30' underwater now.

[@OneNHalfTravelers]

Question, can I do a jet ski? Would it be allow? I

[@JerryArizona]

I'm not sure if they allow jetskis to go up there or not. But if they do, there really isn't anywhere to land one. When we went, it was very narrow; just wide enough to get out and pull your kayak up (you can see it in the video.) Of course, this can change depending on water level. I recommend calling the marina (link in my video description) and ask them. I don't think it's allowed, but not sure.
