March 2026 - Leading into Hoover Dam
About the Image(s)
Why I took this image:
When Carolyn and I made our trip to the canyons of Utah and Las Vegas we also made a day trip to the Hoover Dame which is one of my “bucket” list places. In August of last year, I showed you an image looking from the base of the dam up to the bridge which has always fascinated me. For this image I simply turned around and wanted to show you the source of all the water that flows through the dam. The other thing I wanted to show you is you can see by the lines on the rocks how far the water has receded and indicates a problem with water supply in the future.
