google has introduced a new feature to their street view maps - panoramic 360 degree views of the grand canyon.
the images offer a trip along two of its most popular trails: the bright angel trail to the phantom ranch campsite
and the south kaibab trail - with some maps along the southern rim and along the colorado river. the project
approximately has about 75 miles mapped through-out the region.
