Cruise The Grand Canyon From The Comfort Of Your Home

Have you always wanted to visit the Grand Canyon, but hate the outdoors? First, really? Second, Google Maps has got you. Forget the greasy suntan lotion and check out this fantastic tour of the Colorado River. Using Street View technology, you can get the experience of rafting through the Grand Canyon without fear of drowning or sunstroke.

The project is meant to promote conservation efforts to save the Colorado River, struggling these last few decades due to over-damming and other environmental concerns. Even Robert Redford and Will Ferrell are jumping in, "debating" strategies to save the river. Now cruise on down to Mexico!!!
