The 186-mile-long Lake Powell was formed by the Glen Canyon Dam and named in honor of John Wesley Powell, who led an expedition in wooden boats down the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon in 1869.
 
Rising 710 feet above the Colorado River, Glen Canyon dam serves two purposes: electric power generation and water storage for the arid southwestern United states. Construction of the dam began in 1956 and it began to block the river’s flow in 1963.
