Did you join any tours?

No. It was too long a wait. We're on a tight timeline. It was more impressive than I anticipated.

Yes, the dam is indeed quite impressive and an amazing engineering feat.
It seems timing is always a limiting factor on trips. We didn't plan for time to join an inside tour last time we were there too. I'm thinking it would be really cool to see the size of the penstocks, generators, and turbines in person. Too bad.

Did you do the bridge walk? I have a fear of heights, but I bet those views are incredible.

Yes we did. Up on the bridge, you get a full view of the dam, the powerhouse, reservoir, downstream, the canyon, and surrounding mountains. You are correct, the views are indeed incredible.
