How was traffic crossing the dam? We're planning on doing that in a few weeks.
Timing is everything. I had an early start Friday, April 16, leaving Phoenix prior to 4:30AM. This put me at the Check Point on the Arizona side just prior to 9:30AM. No waiting!
My return to Phoenix began Sunday, April 18, just after 10:00AM. The tourist traffic was heavy! I was in stop-n-go traffic for one hour and ten minutes prior to arriving at the Check Point on the Nevada side. Add twenty-five minutes to actually cross the Dam and you begin to understand.
I have crossed the Dam more than fifty times during the previous sixteen years. My advice, which I failed to follow on my return trip, is to steer clear on weekends. Expect significant delays from Friday afternoon through Monday mid-morning.
