Fly to Point 3. Click the “+” button on the Zoom control to move in closer to this sharp turn called “Bowknot Bend” along the Green River.

From this angle, it may appear that clouds are draped over the ridge between the tight loops in the river’s course.

What will be an ideal response?
The vertical aerial imagery has been "stretched" down over the digital elevation model showing surface topography.
