“Located in Southern Utah and is easily accessible by boat from Wahweap Marina. 309 feet high and 278 foot span.”

This card is postmarked August 11, 1970. Shirley, Sinker and Bonzo write: “On our way back home. Left Las Vegas yesterday morning. We stopped to see Grand Canyon. See you in a few day(s).”
