Look on the upper left hand corner and click on the different views.
The different views show up like pictures, you can pick the trail you want.
You can walk the trails if you have a good mouse to guide you.

I have a rollerball type of mouse, makes it easy.

(493 posts)My wife and I were in Vegas a few years back and went out to the canyon. We have traveled to around 18-20 different countries and seen lots things but had never seen the canyon. So we got a helicopter to fly us out. Was the "5 hr trip" where you fly out, land on a bench about 200 ft above the river and get to hang out for around and hour then you fly back into Vegas at sunset. I think it cost around $900 for the two of us and was well worth it just to see it from that perspective....of course I was up around $6K on the tables so the $900 for the heli was an easy decision.
