From now until Memorial day, the water from Willow beach up to the dam is closed to motorized boats of a certain horspower or higher. I think the horsepower is 65 or something like that.
So one problem you could have would be with the rangers...

Actually, if your on Lake Mohave you can't go above Willow Beach any longer until next Memorial Day. They close it off for power boats(excl tiny ones) from Labor Day to Memorial day the following year.
Still a great ride up to Willow Beach though, worth the trip.

He did say "up" so I assume from Mohave.

Mark, you need to drink more beer up on Powell so Mead fills up faster...dammit!! :D :D

As long as you have a canoe there should not be a problem

If it's a Ford big block, then you'll probably be okay. :)
