Drought has gripped much of the Southwest for 20 years so far, maybe a little longer. The situation has seen Lake Powell at Glen Canyon National Recreation Area drop to about one-third of its full capacity, and Lake Mead downstream is running low, as well. Reduced flows below the Glen Canyon Dam into Grand Canyon National Park have impacted the ecology of that grand canyon and the recreational experience it long has offered.
