During a business trip to Las Vegas, I had some time to fly from 6:00 AM to 7:30 AM with West Air Aviation and 'Van' as CFI departing from KVGT (North Las Vegas Airport) then head to Lake Mead and fly over Hoover Dam.

Approaching Hoover Dam from the North (you can see the dam on the bottom left), then fly over it. Early morning means a lot of Sun on the windshield, so, less than perfect video.

"Van" did the navigate and communicate while I did the aviate (=having the flight controls): good to have a local CFI who knows where to fly ;-)
