There was one video in particular where a man almost slips into one of the cracks as a helicopter airlifts a car onto the cliff http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QX7GRfshLw0 (go to 0:48). It made me think exactly about the "danger" and "action" you mentioned. Although the environment is very calm and peaceful, there are still hidden dangers which demand that visitors do not underestimate the power of the landscape.

I also enjoyed the sense of serenity that you evoked earlier in your post. That said, I wonder if there's a way to evoke the danger and action of the natural world through these tools. Perhaps a Second Life location or through some of the linked YouTubt videos? Just something to think about. Great discussion of the tools Google Earth makes available to the virtual wanderer, Ed!
