On our way our of Las Vegas we made another side trip to Boulder City, Nevada... the home of Hoover Dam. The dam sits on the border of Nevada and Arizona. We drove across twice and spent a good amount of time walking around the area.
The tour guide said I was allowed to take all the "dam" pictures I wanted and I felt obliged to do just that. I was also told that on holidays and long weekends that sometimes it may take up to three hours to cross the dam due to a narrow two-lane road that runs the length of the border. So in some of the pictures you will see "super-highway" being built to by-pass the dam altogether and reduce congestion.
It was rather impressive to see the dam in person. A true engineering marvel.
