Take a hike with Street View
By Larry Halverson
What do tents and hiking boots have in common? You don’t need either to start exploring or planning your next adventure to some of the best national parks and historical sites across North America., including Kootenay and Yoho national parks.
Working with the U.S. National Park Service and Parks Canada, Google Street View cars, trikes and Trekker mapped more than 44 locations with beautiful, 360-degree panoramas.
Leave your gear behind and still get a chance to marvel at the Sequoias in California. Or perhaps you’re looking for more adventure? Lookout to Signal Mountain in Wyoming’s Grand Tetons, climb around California’s Joshua Tree National Park, or dip your toe into Moraine Lake in Banff, Canada.
Planning a camping trip for next summer? You can now use Google maps to look around Redstreak Campground.https://goo.gl/maps/pc5VR
Or … Have you never hiked the Juniper Trail before? Now you can visit no matter where in the world you may be. Google Canada’s Street View images from this past summer with Parks Canada are now live and online! Drag the orange pegman onto the map to see more.https://goo.gl/maps/cBQ1E
