At Lake Powell at Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Bullfrog North and Hall’s Crossing ramps are both closed to motorized vessels. Bullfrog Main is available via a spur to the side of the ramp but it is known to be difficult given the consistent decrease in the water levels. Dangling Rope Marina at Lake Powell is also closed for the rest of the year due to wind damage and low water.
