Lake Mead Overlook is a stunning reservoir formed by the Hoover Dam on the Colorado River, located in Boulder City, NV. As the largest reservoir in the US in terms of water capacity, Lake Mead provides water to multiple states and sustains nearly 20 million people and extensive farmland.
Established as the Boulder Dam Recreation Area in 1936 and later renamed the Lake Mead National Recreation Area, this site offers year-round recreational opportunities and showcases the remnants of submerged communities like St. Thomas. Visitors can witness the unique bathtub ring phenomenon, evidence of the lake's fluctuating water levels over time.
