Visiting Hoover Dam


 Saturday, March 8th, 2008
 
So, after the MIX conference three coworkers and I took Saturday to travel out to Hoover Dam for a little sight seeing. I had been many years ago, but couldn't remember much.

see all the hoover dam pictures here


Looking down over Hoover Dam.


We rode an hour by bus out to the dam and got the standard tour. Since 9/11, the tour has been cut back and you can't go all the way to the bottom anymore.

We did get to go down 500 feet and see the turbines as well as one of the spillways used to divert the river during the dam's construction.

The power generators in Hoover Dam.


After the tour we had a few minutes to walk over to the Arizona side of the dam before heading to the Lake Mead overlook.

I was glad we went but was very disappointed to not get to go to the bottom of the dam. That would have been a cool picture opportunity.
