I took Janet and Chrissy up north after we got washed out this spring. You can certainly do this paddle and hike as a day trip from Antelope Point Marina, but we decided to make an overnight of it and camped on Antelope Island. The water level was 3606 and temp was 76F.

The three days of weather at Page were 78/79/81 and 49/51/52. Pretty much perfect.

We camped west of the dam late Friday night and headed to the marina Saturday morning. It's October, so lake traffic was minimal. We set up camp and then embarked upon our journey up Antelope Canyon, taking our time along the way. Ultimately we ran out of daylight, but it was timed perfectly as we encountered a deep, chilly, swimmer and none of us really wanted to continue through that.

I'll be back here though. There's much more to explore before you hit the reservation and approach the touristas.

Paddling stats:
To camp: 1.11 / 0:35
Up Canyon 2.52 / 1:35
Down Canyon 2.25 / 1:00
Morning Loop 2:21 / 0:45
Back to car via marina 3.66 / 1:50
