We found a parking spot beyond the dam and walked down to viewing area to take some pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The dam is incredible! Even in this low-water situation we&#8217;re in. Sheila and I had visited the dam from the other side when I flew us up to Laughlin 20 years ago. I&#8217;ve never taken tour, but Sheila had. Still, it was an amazing sight to behold!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul
