   Unfortunately, due to the tragic events of September 11, Dam tours are no longer provided to the public, either. It is not known when (or if) the dam will re-open for future public tours. When the dam tour was open, it was a pretty interesting tour.

   The Folsom Dam tour is EXCELLENT, very interesting! The Powerhouse tour is short, fairly boring. If you are pressed for time, DEFINITELY book the Dam tour. I'd only visit the Powerhouse if you have some time to kill. The Powerhouse tour is short, so that helps!
