Deals Gap via Google Street View

A week or so ago I was doing some Google Earth / Maps research for a Gap / Dragon simulator / game I've been toying with / working on for several years now.

In the process of doing this, I found that Google finally has Street View available for the Dragon / Deals Gap area ...

Before using any of the links below, here are some pointers once you get to a street view:

#1 Hide the left pane by clicking on the "<<" box at the top left of street view ... This will give you more space to view...

#2 Once street view comes up, make sure it has "focus" by clicking somewhere within the image...

#3 Use the arrow keys to move around:

left arrow = pan left
right arrow = pan right
up arrow = move forward
down arrow = move backward

You can start from the Deals Gap Store heading North (the start of the dragon for many):




Or how about from the Tennessee side, heading from Tabcat Bridge South:




You can also find some excellent info on this post at Killboy, and at the WhyTheyRide blog.
