I'm actually hoping for more multi year catastrophic drought with major water level declines. The Colorado River Treaty with Mexico expires this December and is being renegotiated right now. Plus, if the drought continues to be bad, that will force the other States like CA & AZ to actually face the problem and perhaps renegotiate the C R Compact with reduced allocations. All of that would be long term major benefits that result in a full lake. Another big snow year like 2011 just ensures they kick the can down the road and use more water than the river actually delivers.
With the 3rd straw, Vegas water no matter what. Even if the river ends at a non-functional Hoover Dam.
