The ruins of Old Highway 72 are located outside of Vonore, TN. Like many casualties of the Tellico Dam, the road was rerouted and abandoned in 1979 following the creation of the Tellico Reservoir. Part of the highway remains today, slowly fading into the surrounding woods.

Lake Powell from the air! Utah State, USA. I rented a small Cessina 182 to get an aerial view of the lake. These massive canyons were cut by the Colorado River on it's way to the ocean, until in 1963 the Glen Canyon Dam was built to form this massive reservoir. Flying here is an absolute must!

In honour of Jean-Paul Driot, here is the list of drivers that made it to F1 after driving for DAMS

Yesterday, the founder and team owner of DAMS, Jean-Paul Driot, passed away at the age of 68. His team has competed in various forms of motorsport, but is most known for its success in Formula E and its long-time presence in junior formula series. Since it was founded in 1988, Driot and DAMS have helped 23 drivers graduate to Formula 1, including 14 in the last eleven years.

Γ‰rik Comas: Comas drove for DAMS for a couple of season in International F3000 (then the equivalent of F2). In 1989, he scored the same points as Jean Alesi at the top of the standings, but lost the title because of having two wins to Alesi's three. The next season, he bounced back to take the championship, helping him to make it into F1 for 1991 and he stayed there for four seasons.

Γ‰ric Bernard: After finishing third in the F3000 series in 1989, Bernard made the jump to F1. He raced for Larrousse for a couple of seasons. A big accident at the back end of 1991 kept him out of action for two seasons and he came back for 1994, achieving a podium finish for Ligier.

Allan McNish: His stint at DAMS came in the early 90s, but his single F1 season came eleven years later, for Toyota. Despite a pointless season for the Japanese manufacturer, McNish had a brilliant career in sportscar racing.

Franck Lagorce: After a season with DAMS in 1992, Lagorce ran a couple of races for Ligier in 1994 when he replaced Bernard.

Jean-Marc Gounon: He competed in one F3000 season and recorded a victory. He then drove 8 races for Simtek and Minardi, without much success.

Olivier Panis: After taking the 1993 F3000 crown, Panis quickly graduated to F1. He competed in ten F1 seasons, with a famous victory in the 1996 Monaco GP and four more podiums. Although he showed a lot of promise early in his career, a major setback after a crash in the 1997 Canadian GP (in which he broke both his legs) cost him a chance at more success.

Jean-Christophe Boullion: Despite a somewhat slow start to his F3000 career, Boullion bounced back and took the 1994 title after an impressive comeback. He competed in eleven races the following season for Sauber, scoring points in two of them, and then returned in his role as a test driver for Williams.

Tarso Marques: Despite an unimpressive F1 career, Marques was a race winner in F3000 in 1995, driving for DAMS.

Franck Montagny: After two unimpressive seasons for DAMS in F3000, Montagny took a different route to F1 and drove seven races for Supe

Reservoirs, Weirs, Dams: man-made functional water features?

I had a weir to review on a walking trail in a remote rural area. I'm all for there being more wayspots in these remote locations and a weir is certainly a point of interest, of which there are not many in such an area, but then again it's just a common weir... is there any official guidance on these man-made functional water features? Obviously if there's a sign and it has some historical significance it would be acceptable on those grounds, but common ones? Seems to me that if common nameless footbridges on walking trails should be acceptable then why not a weir? Also are common nameless road bridges not acceptable without historical significance / signs etc?
