Where else should we go in a National Park? Let us know! Also let your senators know that they should continue to support the parks through funding the backlog of Maintenance.
Thanks to the Department of the Interior for giving us this amazing opportunity, it truly was amazing to see this incredible structure that was built in 1930's.

Just think of the imagination, design skill, engineering and pure manpower it took to create the dam.

You basically went on the exact same tour the general public went on back in the late 1960’s, and yes, we could look out the vents about halfway back up. Back then they called it Boulder Dam, the other buildings on top besides the two elevator towers, are 2 two story public restrooms. If memory serves, there is a great view from the upper level. This brought back great memories for me.

[@fredgarvin4482]

That would have been nice. I guess back when the public could he trusted better. It has been called Hoover Dam for a long time though.

This is true, I was there in 1966 and we went into all if these spots. Below the penstock. We actually parked on the road back then. I guess they don't allow that anymore.

I am amazed by the network of tunnels and all of the massive machinery inside. The thing is when you see footage of the dam being constructed it looks very much like it is solid from base to top? Obviously the amount of planning and thought all of the way through the project was immense. Would love to see some of the finer detail like that and the way they went about it. Thankyou guys for the insight to this engineering marvel.

The open turbine you saw was "JUST" for the service power (as you said), those types are called Pelton turbines, while the actual operating turbines are Francis turbines (which are more efficient if the height is substantial), and those have different blade formations. Just a little fun fact.

No physical magnets involved making electric power... Rotating magnetic fields is how they work, whether it be hydro, Fossil fuel, or nuclear.. large rotating generators work on the same principal

[@battleshipnewjerseysailor4738]

I'm sorry, Hal 9000, but you are mistaken about the no physical magnets part of your statement; there are many different generators that use permanent magnets and all others use electro-magnets to spin a magnetic field.

[@leskobrandon538]

@@battleshipnewjerseysailor4738 maybe in small generators like for home use but not in large industrial generators there are no magnets.. and what is a large industrial generators I mean something in the order of 50 megawatts to 1250 megawatts... I'm a plant equipment operator, I've been a control operator for a 650 megawatt combined cycle plant, a diesel generator operator in the US Navy along with being a gas turbine systems mechanic in the US Navy, and now I operate hydropower plants...
