Check it out folks.... better graphics, loads a nicer view of rivers with names, and check out the little blue globe next to the word 3D on the horizontal task
bar, it allows you to launch the current location in an external map program.

Nice site Jen, decent colorful maps. Have you used my favorite mapsite from natural resources Canada(Question mark, .....Button broken, hehe). It can be found
at; http://atlas.nrcan.gc.ca/site/english/maps/topo/map . This site does all of Canada in sat
pics and also has a nice topo relief setting as well. It zooms in to decent levels and also has a lot of old cutlines and logging roads still shown as well,
many are completely overgrown but it is great to know where they used to be for access, hunting areas, etc. Hope some of you get some use out of this site.

Hi Rolln, I'll check out that link, thank you. The link I sent you is neat because you can add so many neat layers like placer tenures etc... it's very
flexible... but the features are a bit hidden.
Update: I went to the site, I've been there before, sadly it doesn't work on a Mac but thanks. Have a good night Jen |
