it all depends on location it seems, if you're near a town, it'll more likely be clearer, but get out into the country and it gets fuzzy, so yeah, i'm no help! but i have printed my areas off, clear coated them and marked stand locations and all. it helps with my huntinglog

Depends on your location with the Google Earth Beta. Im lucky the little strip in my hunting area is clear, I can pretty much pick out the tree I will be in. Around my city its all a blur.

You can also try mapquest.comit also has the feature to see arial photos now. You can see a hybrid map that is an arial photo but also has the roads marked on them so its easy to find your piece of land.
