If you’ve ever wanted to hike the Grand Canyon but are too lazy to leave your house, then you are in luck! In a project called Google Grand Canyon, the Google Maps team mounted their Google Street View camera rig to backpacks and sent a team to map several Grand Canyon hiking trails. The end result is the ability to virtually hike the Grand Canyon using Google Street View.

Google’s Quest To Map Everything From The Moon To The Grand Canyon

Since February 2005, Google has been very aggressive in its quest to map the Earth and beyond with projects like Google Sky, Google Moon, and Google Mars. But the Google Grand Canyon project might be their most ambitious off-road quest on Earth. Google Grand Canyon includes Google Street View images that cover more than 75 miles of trails and surrounding roads. You can read more about the Google Grand Canyon project here.
