Here's a reason to rejoice. Until recently Google Earth has only had low resolution images for the canyons on the west side of Red Rock Canyon NCA, saving the high res imagery for the first couple pull-outs on the east side. Now I see that they entire park in in glorious hi-res now, so now you can check out the view from the various summits without putting in the leg work. John

I'm not a Google Earth pro yet, but I think I've picked up on... uh, Sandstone Quarry?


Bonnie Springs for sure!


And the base of Rainbow Wall


Google Earth is so addicting!
