Hadn't seen that website before. Gorgeous shots and explorations. Fun to peruse the different albums and see old acquaintances.
Looking at those shots makes me realizes how much further people are pushing down-climbing nowadays.

Are there any non-secret canyons that drop into the lake? Also, who are members of this elusive "A Team"?

Some of the pictures are tributaries of Navajo Canyon, a couple could be from tributaries of Labyrinth Canyon.

I recognize the waterfall, but I believe the canyons in that area are illegal to visit without special permission.
Are there any non-secret canyons that drop into the lake?Utah is a very special and unique place. There is no where else like it on earth. Please take care of it and keep the remaining wild areas in pristine condition. The world will be a better place if you do.

With a couple of exceptions, most the canyons in that area just require a Navajo hiking permit to be legal. I'll post the info for obtaining a Navajo permit tomorrow as the info is on my work computer.
When doing the canyons from the lake I've never seen anther soul, let alone anyone checking for permits.... YMMV...

I guess I should chime in since it's my blog he's referring to. As Tom says "agreements are in place," and I've promised not to go broadbanding beta to everyone on the internet about all the canyons I've done on Lake Powell so I apologize. Maybe I shouldn't post photos online of canyons I'm not willing to broadband beta on? I kinda feel like a douche when someone asks and I tell them no. It may be better to just keep those photos to myself? I will admit the blog is mainly for me, to show family members and friends photos from my various adventures. I keep it public in case strangers are interested in looking at the photos.
Shane is right, some of the pictures are tributaries of Navajo Canyon (special permission was obtained), others are tributaries of Warm Springs Canyon (which are in Kelseys book), none are tributaries of Labyrinth although there might be good slots coming into Labyrinth? Do you have access to a boat jon.moab? Maybe we could do some canyons together sometime (I don't do canyons NEARLY as much as I used to, but hope to do a few more this year than last) and talk about possibilities of assembling an "A-Team," to hit the lake.

are you saying you've done technical canyons in those drainages? i've got some money just burning a hole in my pocket to buy that beta from you. (well, not really... but you get the point.)
when will you release it? 30 years is a long time to sit on such gems...
as a side note, the term "canyoneer" had been coined by John Wesley Powell's men, close to 100 years before even YOU had a chance to shit in diapers. but of course you wouldn't understand because your myopic version of canyon history seems to start with shane, and end with burrows.
