The Hoover Dam is surprisingly a really cool spot! A great place for engineering nerds to geek out and marvel at the structural engineering but also as a photographer to capture some great light

Serene recreation area, I went in February and practically was the only one out on the water. The recreation area visitor center has boats and kayaks for rent.
