Default Which spot will u take a closer look at?

Hey guys next year i want to take a look at this area. I dont really know how to read aerial maps so i was wondering where would u guys take a closer look at in this area. Its the rectangular area in the middle.

doesnt work...but reading an ariel map is pretty straight forward. its a picture from a sattalite...you see what the area looks like from above. though i found it dont look like much unless you couple that with a topo...kinda hard to figure out what your looking at also unless theres distinguishing features...roads or landmarks etc. creeks, trails, openings etc. i used roads i knew of and a water tower i knew of to help me find where i was on the map once. be careful with them also. some were taken a while ago...could been ALOT diffrent then opposed to today. like here houses pop up like wildfire. i bet i could find ariels from 10yrs ago that would look nothing like they would today. get a topo to go with your ariel and you can do some serious homework sitting at your desk. for big sets of woods ill do that before i ever step foot in the woods to scout. it does not replace scouting on foot though. you can find all the good likely areas once you learn to use the ariels and topos..but there may not be deer there for one reason or another. i also use it around my house...suburbia with houses and farms all over..i can often find spots that i overlook from the ground. good luck..ariels and topos are a great hunting tool once you learn to use them..reading them is pretty easy once you learn it.

It's working just fine. You all need to realise the blank screen is a representation of Florida, all flat!
