Francis Ridge:
Apollo 17 was the last manned mission to the Moon. The Apollo 17 lunar module landed within 200 meters of the preferred landing point in a deep narrow valley called Taurus- Littrow. This valley is located in the mountainous highlands at the eastern rim of the Serenitatis basin, about 750 kilometers east of the the Apollo 15 landing site and about the same distance north of the Apollo 11 site. The Apollo 17 site is in a dark deposit between massifs of the southwestern Taurus Mountains and south of the crater Littrow. The valley floor is essentially flat with only a gentle incline.

To begin our tour let's start with the Lunar Orbiter (LO4-078H3) view which preceded the mission:
