Somewhere I've got a picture I took of it at 7000' above the ground.

There's only a few landmarks that have restricted airspace at low level. The Grand Canyon and Mount Rushmore come to mind. In the case of the Grand Canyon, commercial operators are granted special access which kinda pisses me off. The whole reason for restricting access is because the commercial operators were running into each other. It doesn't really matter because the actual canyon spans more than 200 miles and only a small area is restricted. Lake Powell is actually better to fly over.
