Should arrive at Hoover dam around 11:00 give or take a few for photo ops.
I'm thinking 1-1/2 to play tourist and maybe one of the tours. I'm up for just about any of the tours, so what the majority prefers, count me in.
Please note that there is a $7.00 parking fee and a fee for each one of the tours. See link for info.

HWY 93 to get there early enough and maybe do the power plant tour. Northshore Rd & Lake Mead Blvd (tool road) on the way back for more of a cruise.
Be back before 2pm to clean up and crash poker tournament.
Thoughts, input, suggestions???
