Virtual Hikes in Google Earth

Foram, this is for you!

So, found a great collection of places to "hike" in Google Earth.  Sure, it's a little bit of a bummer to hear "9 Mountains You May Never See In Person", but once you get past that notion, it is a fun idea.  Why not hike Vesuvius?  (I have seen Vesuvius IRL.  I mostly gaped at it like a moron.  History geek!)

Here's the link, which gives out coordinates:
Virtual Hikes.

Greetings From Mt. Fuji!
