Title: Google Street Veiw - Ski Slopes?!?
Post by: BigMattFromTexas on February 11, 2010, 10:26:15 PM
Ok so now Google is taking street view to the next, next level... Google has taken I snow-mobile onto the slopes and taken HD pictures... I think that it's cool, but I hope they plan on retaking the Low-Def pictures they have on most roads...

Oooh. Do you have a link to the images? or at least tell us where to look in Street View for them?

Hey, Google Street View has been impressing me more and more.  They now have the Dalton Hwy and the Dempster Hwy way up north as well as much of Canada (including Newfoundland) and Alaska.  It's a hell of a way to waste time at work.  :-D
