Boulder City, NV., however, is right there at the Hoover Dam... just west
of it on US93 ;)

for grins, i asked google maps to map a route from the "Boulder
Dam" in Boulder, CO., to the "Boulder/Hoover Dam"...

or, if you wanna see a small preview before opening it all the way up, use
this one...

799 miles, 11 hours, 39 minutes travel time... I70 west into Utah and then
I15 south into Las Vegas and then a short jaunt south-easterly to Boulder
City... the Boulder/Hoover Dam, is just a bit further east on US93...

Bye bye!
