All remaining 2013 True GRIT trips are full. Graffiti
Glen Canyon NRA has developed the Graffiti Removal and Intervention Team (GRIT) program in order to remove non-historical graffiti from rock faces and sandstone walls, and from shoreline areas within the park. Graffiti is removed using water and wire brushes. Take a five day trip aboard the “True GRIT” houseboat. Trips leave from Antelope Point Marina, Arizona. Destinations will vary on each trip. Trips are limited to 4 people plus the captain. Crew members need to bring personal gear, breakfast and lunch for all days, and provide one dinner for all crew members on one night of the trip. 
Prevent the spread of ugly graffiti. Help restore the beauty of the cliffs on the shores of Lake Powell. Join the Graffiti Removal and Intervention Team.
