Показать описание
Located 7 miles northeast of Boulder City in Nevada is the world-famous Hoover Dam. The Hoover Dam, an iconic feat of engineering completed in 1936, stands as a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance. Additionally, Boulder City was built in 1932 to house the 5,000 workers and their families who constructed the Hoover Dam. Boulder City contained dormitories, small cottages, and a mess hall that served 6,000 meals a day. The Hoover Dam’s construction provided thousands of jobs during the Great Depression and continues to generate hydroelectric power for millions today!

I drove an 18-wheeler across the dam years ago, before the bridge was built. Amazing.

Like the Grand Canyon you have to be there to experience it. Truly awesome sight you need to look down from the middle on the backside of the dam.

I had recurring dreams my whole life of falling off the top of this dam. Then 20 years later I stood in real life at the very position that I had fallen off countless times, and and looked over the edge. I haven't had that dream since.
