Standing atop the dam, gaze out over the vast Lake Mead and the Colorado River, as you learn about the dam's construction and its transformative impact on the region. Conclude your tour at the visually stunning Seven Magic Mountains, an art installation that juxtaposes the Mojave's muted tones with bursts of vibrant, stacked boulders.
