Hoover Dam
Located in Black Canyon on the Colorado River, the Hoover Dam was once the largest dam in the world. As you explore, you'll see its incredible size, complex design, and the impressive feat of overcoming the challenges of the desert sun, a treacherous river, and towering heights. The construction of the dam also led to the creation of Lake Mead, North America's largest man-made reservoir.
