Glen Canyon Dam is a concrete arch dam on the Colorado River in northern Arizona in the United States near the town of Page. The dam was built to provide hydroelectricity and flow regulation from the upper Colorado River Basin to the lower. Its reservoir is called Lake Powell and is the second largest artificial lake in the country extending upriver well into Utah.
