Lake Mead, the largest reservoir in the US
Two and a half years ago, in February 2021, I made a stop at the Hoover Dam. It’s situated just outside of Las Vegas and is one of the largest dams in the US. It’s a major tourist attraction and something I’d always wanted to see. And while I marveled at the engineering and construction, it’s no surprise that I more immediately connected with the water it holds back, Lake Mead, which is the largest reservoir in the United States.
