after reading this i got google earth, and woohooo is it neat. i cant find my house because i am in one of those blurry green areas. it seems like you have to be close to a big city to see clearly. I did find my camp though, it seems pretty clear there. i found my uncles house, yard, the camp, the layout of the creek. pretty cool stuff. I am impressed on how it shows elevation if you change your angle so you are on the ground looking parralel.
im chekcing out usaphotomaps right now
