Coolest thing I've seen in a while. Been playing with this all night. If you haven't already, try it out.
Actually did a fly-by of my route from home to CB.

The only problem is that some pictures are at least a year old.

I thought it would be great to check out how busy the SCs are. Then I realized the piks were out of date...

Tell me about it, I checked out a location where my company is working near Wasaga Beach and it showed nothing but forests.... when our trailers and machines have been there since March!

I have had the same type of problem as you. I've been starting to get creative on how I locate my hometown of Huntsville, Ontario. Nothing works!

I mean c'mon, India has this whole blur thing going on which makes it impossible to locate places like Taj Mahal, The Red Fort or The Golden Temple...ect.. I understand it was for there own privacy and security reasons. However in the case of Muskoka, it's like 1 big forest. Perhaps they thought any region with a place called Santa's Village that is open in the summer was not worth the extra work, but I can see boats sailing of the coast off the Ikarian Island in Greece.

Regardless, Google Earth is the coolest program I have ever seen. This is the future of Map Quest.

(just imagine what the military has and uses and how much more advanced it is)

Goldie & Kurt probably has a Sat jamming device at their pad. Good thing, wouldn't want CIA to spy on Goodtime at Deerhurst for R & R
