Glen Canyon, once described as a "land of beauty and glory" and "earth's original paradise," deserves to be restored and designated as a national park. The construction of Glen Canyon Dam in 1963 flooded this natural wonder, destroying unique ecosystems and cultural treasures. However, with Lake Powell's water levels declining due to overallocation and climate change, there's an opportunity to restore Glen Canyon. Bypassing the dam and consolidating water in Lake Mead could address water supply issues while allowing Glen Canyon's ecosystems to heal. This restoration would showcase nature's resilience, preserve a rich cultural heritage, and create a more sustainable water management system for the Colorado River Basin.
