Our family day trip to Canyon Lake was packed with sunshine, stunning mountain views, unexpected wipeouts, and plenty of laughter. From forgetting our day pass to getting soaked by a surf boat’s wake, this adventure was as memorable as it was hilarious!

We kicked off our Utah road trip in Page, AZ, where our pups tested the waters—literally—on a scenic Lake Powell boat day. From rocky hikes to sandy beaches and surprise boat rental hurdles, this stop had it all (plus a developing dog friendship... maybe).

Sun-soaked on Lake Pleasant: boating, wildlife, and unexpected adventures made for a perfect day in Arizona's wild heart.
