Every now and then when I open the sl browser instead of the usual splash screen with rocks and trees and the stats up on the right I get a screen that looks like the Sierras, specifically Yosemite Valley and Half Dome and no stats up on the right.
Is there a Yosemite Sim ??? Climbing Half Dome or El Capitan would be really cool.

Thanks,
Effjaye

Don't know about Yosemite, but I did see a Bugs Bunny.............. err wait. Wrong Yosemite.

There is a really nice Cascades nature park, it covers several sims. Check it out.

There actually was a Yosemite being built about a year ago. That wasn't the name of the sim - I don't remember what it was. When I visited, the walls and valley floor were about all that was completed, with a few 2-dimensional deer grazing here and there :-)

It was kind of impressive, considering that you couldn't actually make it look 3000 feet deep! But there were big "Under Construction" signs and bulldozers all over the place. I don't know if it is still there. It would be a lot easier now with sculpties, so I hope someone tries it again soon.

You could make *be* look that deep... the normal ground level around such a canyon would just have to be around 750m up, made of sculpties for coolness (or 710 if you dig 40mdown)

Now I wants me a sim for this lol
