Seeing Oatman Road from all angles

Over the years, I’ve posted videos of people cruising Route 66 on the twisting, turning Oatman Road to Oatman, Arizona.

Skip La Fetra recently drove east on Oatman Road with a 360-degree video camera mounted to the top of his car. It provides views of old Route 66 and the spectacular Black Mountains from all angles you can see simply by using your mouse.

I would, however, turn down the sound — except for the low-speed cruise through Oatman city limits — because the wind noise is nearly intolerable.

But I like this trend of 360-degree videos. It’s like Google Street View in motion.
