Flight from Denver to L.A.

I am sifting through our Hawaii trip photos.  Here are the first of many.  We first flew from Denver to L.A., therefore we flew over the Rocky Mountains as well as some pretty interesting terrain.  Most of the photos we could identify, others I could use your help on.  Let me know if you can label what some of the photos are.  These were taken March 31, 2012.  They are posted in the order I took them, to that might help identify what some of them are.  I also changed my blog format as Blogspot has new design options.  Let me know if you like the new style.

This is Lake Dillon. The ski runs you see toward the middle are Keystone.  Our condo is around the base of the snow capped mountain on the top left area, near Lake Dillon.
This is a zoomed in photo of Lake Dillon.  Normally in March, you would see a lot more snow everywhere, not just the mountain peaks. It was a very dry winter, the driest we've ever seen in the 23 years we've lived in Colorado.

This is a cool look at Breckenridge ski runs.  The solid mountain peaks going at a diagonal are 10 Mile Range.  The smaller runs on the left side is Copper Mountain ski resort.

This is Copper Mountain ski resort with I-70 coming in from the top left and then angling towards Frisco on the right side.  The road on the bottom right, 91, leads to Leadville.

This is a mystery lake, further west of Summit County.  Does anyone know what lake it could be?

This is zoomed in photo of the same mystery lake.
This is a mystery river.  It probably is in Utah.  Any guesses to what the name is?
This is a beautiful canyon that we were unable to identify. Perhaps it's Grand Canyon?

This is closer look at this pretty canyon.

This is west of the 2 previous canyon photos. Perhaps it's Lake Powell? If so, then the 2 previous photos are not the Grand Canyon.  These photos are in the order I took them.

I believe this is Lake Mead and Colorado River. You can see the Hoover Dam on the far left side. If it's not the Hoover Dam, then I'm not sure what the bodies of water are.
