The Mike O’Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge (aka Hoover Dam Bridge) is something of a miracle of modern engineering and a must-see attraction for anyone visiting the area. It is hard to avoid superlatives when describing this bridge completed in 2010 to relieve the traffic congestion along US 93, which used to carry all traffic between Arizona and Nevada over the wall of the Hoover Dam.

The best way to get an overview of the bridge, the Hoover Dam Wall, and the Colorado River is to take a helicopter tour over the area, but it is also possible to safely walk along the bridge’s pedestrian walkway, which offers sweeping views out over the dam and the Mojave Desert.
