kayaked from the base of the hoover dam to willow beach. What an amazing experience!!! It began with the restricted road we took down to the hoover dam. The driver gave us a bit of a historical perspective which was really cool. the weather was perfect and the extra help from some tail wind was awesome. We stopped frequently to explore the spots highlighted on the map and still got back in time.
our only complaint is the way the pick up works. It took us about 1 hour after pickup time to actually begin our journey back to the hotel. To make matters worse, one of the vans blocked our car in and the driver proceeded to finish his duties before moving the van, which was very annoying. the annoyance factor might have been exacerbated by a full day of rowing in the sun.
All in all, every person living in Las Vegas should do this.
P.S. beware of a rogue nudist in the hot springs on the arizona side. A lady in our launch group was unpleasantly surprised by this individual. It made for a good laugh but it couldve just as well been a child. Apparently the park services know about this free baller but cant do anything about it unless they catch him "in the act".
