The Wahweap Overlook is a rest area above Lake Powell, AZ, an extremely easy place to reach with an open horizon.

This is a wonderful activation location that checks all boxes. It has a clear horizon and great drop-offs in almost all directions. It’s a very short drive from the highway to the mesa above the marina with a wonderful view of Lake Powell – even a passenger car will have no problem getting there.

Although it would be a bit hot and toasty in June, this spot would be great for Es season.

We operated using 400w to 700w for about 4 hours (good sun for the solar panels) with a steady flow of callers.
