The Mike O'Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge - Hoover Dam - Nevada / Arizona

This is the Mike O'Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, which spans the Colorado River between Nevada and Arizona at the Hoover Dam, not far from Las Vegas. For those that don't want to wikipedia the info, Mike O'Callaghan served as Nevada's governor in the 70's. Pat Tillman was the pro football player (played for the Cardinals) who left his football career to enlist in the U.S. Army, and was later killed by friendly fire in Afghanistan. The bridge is the second-highest bridge in the U.S.
