Glen Canyon Dam (tailwater launch)
Glen Canyon Dam marks the upstream end of the 15-mile tailwater reach that ends at Lees Ferry. Not a road-accessible launch in the traditional sense — commercial float trips on the tailwater launch from a guided shuttle that drops boats below the dam; private paddlers typically put in at Lees Ferry and paddle upstream toward the dam rather than shuttling from the dam itself.
