  1. I have been looking for the 10th full size photo (below lodging) in your article. I really want to have a copy that I can blow up to a 16 x 20 size poster for my bathroom. I am not sure why it’s so hard to find that particular view but it’s my favorite and I’ve had no luck. Is there any chance you could send me a copy that might be a higher resolution?

    • Hi Erin. Unfortunatly, the only size of the pictures we have available are what’s already been uploaded to the site. You can right click on the image and click save as, in order to download the full resolution. Other than that. Not sure how to help you. Good luck. Hope you find it.
