you do realize that the gubmint will be tracking your movements now that you've taken photos of that dam?

They are quite serious about security there, these days. The "hard hat tours" they used to give now appear to be absent from the listings, the road has pop-up roadblocks to prevent vehicles from getting through, and all large vehicles are searched even though none of them (busses, RVs, semis) are permitted to drive over the dam.

I really wish I had been able to go on the hard hat tour, because they supposedly took you through tunnels at the spillway and through other levels of the structure. Even with metal detectors, etc, they don't seem to be taking any chances these days.

...and with as much water as that thing is holding back, I fully understand it.
