Took a comedian-led bus tour from the Las Vegas Strip to the Hoover Dam on 7/25/2016. This is me on top of the dam with the new bypass bridge in the background. I highly recommend "Comedy on Deck Tours" and visiting the Hoover Dam itself with the generator room tour.

Hoover Dam
Hoover Dam, once known as Boulder Dam, is a concrete arch-gravity dam in the Black Canyon of the Colorado River, on the border between the US states of Arizona and Nevada. It was constructed between 1931 and 1936, and was dedicated on September 30, 1935, by President Franklin Roosevelt. Its construction was the result of a massive effort involving thousands of workers, and cost over one hundred lives.
