The Planet Earth Online We Live on a big, beautiful planet stocked with a great variety of scenery and landscape. It is a planet made for humans to live on, but most of it is covered by fields and mountains and deserts and oceans. It is a real planet full of living plants and animals, and a few billion people, each of which are unique and interesting. People have shaped the world in many ways, building houses and cities and farms. Roads, a man-made feature, criss-cross the whole earth, tying together its endless variety into one common network. Since 1999, UntraveledRoad has been capturing the scenery of modern highways, mountain roads, city streets and trails, visiting places both exotic and familiar to create a photographic virtual world, where you can stop to look at wildflowers, lakes, mountain vistas, and read historic markers, all from the comfort of your computer chair. With 396,883 hand-held camera photographs, UntraveledRoad preserves a repository of beautiful scenery which you can explore at your leisure. If you want to see the beauty of National Parks, the serenity of an alpine wilderness, the solitude of the desert, or wander randomly along highways, it is waiting for you now at a mouseclick. These virtual tours consist of stops along roads, streets and trails, where four pictures are taken, one in each direction. Each page shows an ahead-facing picture along with two side view thumbnails. You can turn in any direction, and proceed to the next stop. Where appropriate, extra pictures show high-resolution views of scenery, or historic and interpretative markers. Some complicated intersections include pictures for diagonal directions. To skip uneventful sections of roadway, a jump feature takes you to the next important town or intersection. See the legend at the bottom of this page for more information. This page highlights only a few samples of the many explorations you can make on UntraveledRoad. Lassen Peak Lassen Volcanic Park In 1914 and 1915, Lassen Peak dazzled America with the only volcanic eruptions since the arrival of Europeans on the continent. The eruptions reached a climax on May 22, 1915 with an eruption that sent volcanic ash 30,000 feet in the air and left a trail for 200 miles to the east. The blast could be seen for hundreds of miles away. The slopes of the mountain were devastated as the eruption mixed with melted snow and swept down the mountain slopes. The next year, congress responded by establishing Lassen Volcanic Park on August 9, 1916. Scientists and other curious onlookers studied the effects of the eruption. Falling into dormancy after its impressive show, Lassen has long since been covered in forests and grass, although hot springs and steaming vents still exist. With Lassen Peak reaching 10,457 feet in elevation, heavy winter snows melt into green alpine meadows in summer, and vacationeers come to beat the summer heat, hike on the many trails, and read interpretative markers about the great eruption. Sun Valley Road Sun Valley Sun Valley is a world-class ski resort and one of the premier all-season resorts in America where celebrities and millionaires make their home. Enjoying a beautiful location in the Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho, it is surrounded by the beauty of nature with mountain creeks and forested slopes. The old mining town Ketchum borders Sun Valley on the west and has become the shopping center for the area with its few streets packed with shops of all kinds, targeting tourists, as well as museums and other places of interest. Trail Creek Road , continuing northeast from Sun Valley, makes a dramatic climb up the side of the Pioneer Mountain Range and crosses a pass high in the mountains where creeks, alpine meadows and rocky mountain peaks are everywhere. It continues on to the Lost River Valley . Arbon Arbon Valley Imagine a rural valley that almost no one has ever heard of, full of grassland and waving fields of grain, and surrounded by beautiful forested mountains. A small paved road runs through the middle of it, passing by scattered farmhouses, abandoned cabins, and a tiny school. This is Arbon Valley . Arbon Valley is nestled between the Deep Creek Mountains and the Pleasantview Hills in southern Idaho. It is presided over by Deep Creek Peak at 8,748 feet, which is roughly 3,500 feet above the valley floor. There is nothing spectacular about it except for these three things: 1: Its beautiful scenery, 2: It is a showcase of what's right with America, and 3: You can visit it now in this online tour.
