Above is a very wide panorama of the Grand Canyon (4427 x 753 pixels; 1.8mb).
It was made from a series of 9 overlapping
photos, which were then stitched together to form this pano. In your windows viewer
(perhaps others) you may have to click on the "actual size" button (bottom, left side)
to get the whole image to appear, then scroll left-right (perhaps top to bottom) to see
from buttress to buttress. The photos were taken from The Tipoff along the South Kaibab Trail.
On the left is the Tapeats Sandstone that bolsters the Tonto Platform (famous for the
Tonto Trail), then, continuing to the right, is the Colorado River, then a slice of
the Phantom Ranch/Bright Angel Creek greenery, to the view point on the South Kaibab,
and around to where the trail heads down toward the river from The Tipoff on the right
buttress. Yoweeeee! A most glorious lunch spot! Click the image above for the full-strength view.
