The Hoover Dam checkpoint is an unmarked location within Hoover Dam in the Mojave Wasteland in Fallout: New Vegas.

Layout[]

A makeshift shack built on top of the dam, it is normally inaccessible until the final quest of the game. The checkpoint building is constructed with scrap materials, with lockers and metal boxes strewed about the room. There is nothing of value to take, unless the Followers of the Apocalypse have been convinced to help the NCR, in which case there will be a medical supply kit inside. In the room, there is a ladder that leads to a watchtower that looks over Hoover Dam.

Against the southern wall, a terminal can be found, which grants information about the dam's generators. There is also an option to run a diagnosis of the generators. If one has a detonator in their inventory, it is possible to rig the generators to detonate them. Detonating them will show an EMP-like effect around the checkpoint, killing any Legion troops on the other side of the checkpoint during Eureka!.

Appearances[]

The Hoover Dam checkpoint appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.
