Description

Jen Piatek beat me to GigaPanning the "On a Clear Day You Can See Forever" overlook (www.gigapan.org/gigapans/32030/) in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. Since I didn't want to exactly duplicate her GigaPan I decided to try for a slightly different vantage point - in this case, a bit higher. I shot this 270 degree GigaPan from right beside the radio tower that's just out of view to the right of her other great GigaPan (of Cross Bedding in the Navajo Sandstone - www.gigapan.org/gigapans/32031/) from that viewpoint.

This (along with Dantes View in Death Valley) was one of the GigaPans I've been dying to shoot almost since I got the device and which I was able to finally shoot on this trip. All things considered, I'm much more pleased with the results of this one.

    Very nice gigapan! Looks like you had less haze than Jen and better equipment.
