Boulder Dam And Lake Mead
Additional Details:
Boulder Dam and Lake Mead as seen from the high cliffs on the Nevada side of Black Canyon. In the immediate foreground is the Nevada Observation Point from which thousands of Visitors, each year, view this giant Bureau of Reclamation structure. In this photo the 150-ton cableway is shown in operation. By means of the cableway loaded freight cars are lowered from the canyon wall to the level of the power-plant - 600 feet below. |
