Description
this is on the border of Nevada and Arizona and almost reaches to Utah.the river feeding it is the same Colorado river that made Grand Canyon
they are constructing a bridge to cross the gorge and it will be much quicker than driving across the dam.since 911 they have not allowed trucks or buses to cross the dam
thanks for viewing and any comments

Hey isn't that where the transfromers are hiding :-)
Excellent shot!!
A spectacular arial view Richard. Stunning!
This dam was predicted to silt up in fifty years after it was built based on a tour in the 50's. So surprising to see water still behind it.
It is a amacing shot. Fantastic:-)hugs sessan
Awesome view, Richard. Perfect shot!!!
Excellent photo. I haven't missed being able to take the 18-wheeler over the dam. Other than being a shorter route, it just didn't seem prudent to be taking 40+ ton vehicles over the top of the structure.
Very impressive view!!!!
awesome shot
Another great arial shot...this really contrasts the desert with the water...you can even see the waterline on the rock faces. Looks a little low. Great capture :D
Excellent capture. Magnificent location....
Very cool POV. I like this this very much. Bunny
wonderful shot. I see the work been done here
You got some wonderful shots on your trip and you can see so much at this height can't you. Very rugged beauty in this capture.
Another great shot, love the hazy tone.
LOVE the POV
Love your arial pics Richard,they are great
Fantastic Richard! I've never seen this view of the Dam before! My Dad use to live just below the Dam!
Awesome view and capture, great shot!!
What a great shot. I love this high altitude shot.
Wonderful POV of such a majestic scene, spectacular image!!!
I was near this location many years ago, but never got to see it from this vantage point. Outstanding image, Richard!
Been there serveral times and each time it seems more unreal thanks for sharing!
Beautiful capture!!
This is an amazing photo. I do wonder why there is such white line nearest the water. Is it sand or is is some kind of chalk? Have you been on a plain or a chopper`?...I guess so. It is too high up to be a muntain. LOL!
What a view Richard! [=
