Google Earth
Maybe this is old stuff, but I recently stumbled upon Google Earth I'm having a blast, but wasting a lot of time with it. Basically you are provided an image of the earth, and you can sort of seamlessly go to any location (visually) on the planet. The Grand Canyon is really cool. You can tilt your perspective, direction, distance, etc.. They even give you GPS coordinates, so you can find cool places to visit. Anyway, here's my corner of the world (the menan buttes that are to the west of Rexburg). To download the software follow this link.

I think it is cheezy how they colorize the photos. They would be easier to read if they just left them black and white. Oh bother.
I don't know the name of the cave on the other post. sorry.
Do they colorize them? Either way, I find it pretty effective and don't have much trouble reading anything. Sorry you're troubled.
