National Parks now in Google Earth

Can't wait to check this out -- the Google Earth Blog is talking about the new US National Parks layer in the update just released, US National Parks Layer in Google Earth

You find this under the "Featured Content" layer in Google Earth as of today. You need to zoom down lower to one of the parks to see all of the information. The new layer not only shows the locations of National Parks all over the US, but also contains sublayers with park information and boundary information. Even more interesting is the "Trails" layer. Check out Yosemite and you see hiking trails all over the place including the trail up to the top of Half Dome. If you go to Denali National Park in Alaska they even have the preferred routes up Denali (also known as Mt. McKinley)....
