Yampa Bench Overlook

07.15.09

Aside from dinosaur bones, Dinosaur National Monument has lots to see in the way of scenery, as the Green River cuts through the eastern end of the Uinta Mountains. Visit the Harper's Corner Scenic Drive and see the river gorge, overviews of the Yampa Bench and the dramatic twisted layers of sedimentary rock.

HERE IS YOUR CHANCE TO CAPTURE A MOMENT away from it all and enjoy an expedition into the great outdoors. In a photographic virtual world, the UntraveledRoad recreates the experience of scenic national parks, rustic ranching communities, skyscraper-topped cityscapes and hundreds of miles of meandering highways and roads. At each point along the route, see the view in all directions, and choose what direction you wish to follow. If you are tired of busy city life, take a moment to visit a few quiet places like Malta, a quiet ranching village in Idaho's Raft River Valley, or Burns, a logging town on the edge of Oregon's extensive Ponderosa Pine forest.

TOURISM GOES GREEN. Conserve gas and your budget by visiting your favorite parks and travel destinations online. An UntraveledRoad tour is second-best only to being there. In addition, many beautiful, intriguing and unusual places that you have never even heard of can easily be enjoyed online. When you do travel, preflight your trip online to make sure that you will get to see the places that really interest you.

Real Live Photography. All 255,767 images on UntraveledRoad were taken by human-operated hand-held camera.

In addition to the functional pictures of the tours, many thousands of high-resolution pictures hilight the scenery surrounding the route. Close ups of historic and interpretative markers are also photographed and linked in, complete with their text typed in for easy on-screen reading.
