Glen Canyon National Recreation Area is taking steps to maintain uplake boating access at Lake Powell during the 2026 summer season ahead of predicted lower water levels. The predictions are leading the park and its partners to adjust facilities to ensure visitors can continue accessing services in the Bullfrog and Halls Crossing areas.
Bureau of Reclamation officials had a dim outlook for the coming months, in terms of water inflows to Lake Powell, estimating that "[T]he 2026 April through July unregulated inflow forecast for Lake Powell is 3.65 (million-acre feet) or 57% of average."
Temporary Relocation of Bullfrog Marina & Bullfrog Boat Rentals/Fuel Dock
In the coming months, Aramark will begin moving the Bullfrog Marina and Bullfrog Boat Rentals and Fuel Dock into deeper water near Halls Crossing Marina. This temporary move will position marina services in a more reliable location for the 2026 summer season and beyond. Fuel will remain attached to the Bullfrog Boat Rentals dock.
Stanton Creek Ramp Project
The Park Service is finalizing plans for a new, permanent long-term ramp at Stanton Creek at Bullfrog. Designed to function at lower lake elevations, the Stanton Creek ramp will improve uplake motorized boat access once completed. However, due to the project’s size and complexity, the ramp will not be completed for the summer 2026 season. After the Stanton Creek ramp project is completed, the Bullfrog Marina will be permanently moved to that location, near the established community and facilities of Bullfrog. The park is exploring options for a primitive ramp in the Bullfrog/Stanton Creek area for this summer; however, it is unknown at this time how deep the ramp could extend.
