8. Lake Powell
Lake Powell can be found along the border of Arizona and Utah. This reservoir is the USA’s second-largest man-made lake. It’s also a very popular vacation destination as well.
It is 186 miles in length and includes 1,960 miles of shoreline. When it is full it stores a maximum of 24,322,000 acre-feet of water. There’s a lot to do here too. You can go fishing, ride jet skis and even rent a houseboat if you would like to stick around a bit longer.
9. Antelope Canyon
Instagramable Antelope Canyon is reported to be one of the United States’ “most photographed” locations. This stunning spot can be found approximately 12 miles southeast of the above-mentioned Lake Powell. More specifically, it is situated on official Navajo tribal land just outside of Page, Arizona. You can only visit Antelope Canyon by signing on with a guided tour. If you are a shutterbug, the best time to visit is during the early and late morning hours when the lighting is better.
Although the famous Grand Canyon may appear to be incredibly deep, especially if you are on the Skywalk looking down into it is actually not the world’s deepest canyon. If you want to see the deepest canyon on the planet you will have to travel to Tibet in Asia. There you will find the Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon. America’s Grand Canyon, however, remains one of the country’s most impressive national monuments.
