This was taken from Hoover Dam, looking northeast at the Colorado River as it flows from Lake Mead. When full, Lake Mead is the largest reservoir in the U.S., but you can see in this photo the low level of the water. Just 20 or so miles from Las Vegas, Hoover Dam is a great place to visit to see the amazing architecture of the dam, as well as the Mike O'Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge that spans from Nevada to Arizona over the Colorado River.
