This site is the best I’ve seen. I read about it in the latest issue of
Whitetail Hunting Strategies Magizine. We have seen good sites go “pay per view.” And the price of them are as High as 400.00 per year.[:@] Well the Mag listed a few sites to check out as I did. I liked
www.mytopo.com and
www.mapcard.com
Mapcard is by far the coolest aerial photo map site I’ve seen. The quality of pictures compared to Terrafly.com is less great but the options mapcard gives are sweet. Also you
can’t “fly” like terrafly.
You can grid off a piece of land though and it tells you how many acres you’ve closed in. You can also wave point to or more spots to get the distance. You can imagine how great these two tools are for a hunter. There is much more this site does and I’ll learn it eventually. I just started using it today and I can say it’s great enough that I wanted to share it to all you people. The bad news: It’s not free! The good news: You get a 24hr free trial and if you like it you can order it per year for something like 30 bucks a year! Considering the price of others, that' s a deal! I tried to print some maps on the trial and you get a big fat “SAMPLE” across the print. Figures! It says that if you’re a member you get “better quality photos and endless downloads” (compared to the sample photos.) Anyway check it out and let me know what you think. If you’re using a better site fill me in. I plan on forking over 30 beans for it. Give me your insight. Take care all!
