A rock butte on Lake Mead

A massive block of dark brown rock with a flat top stands in the open water, choppy blue waves in front; behind it a pale, bare shoreline stretches away beneath a line of distant mountains and a clear sky. Lake Mead, the reservoir formed behind the dam, stretches for more than 170 kilometres up the Colorado.
