[QUOTE=".308 Norma, post: 743177, member: 26578"] What Wild Rose said.. I like using Google Earth for checking out the high country, for instance locating what roads/trails will take you back in as far as possible from the beaten path. Using a topo map you can see the lay of the land by elevation changes, etc., but if you`re looking down on it from a satellite camera that you can zoom in or widen out it gets lots easier, for me anyway, to pick a route to travel. Also you can see what`s timbered and what`s open high meadows, saddles, and even game trails like my sky soldier brother mentioned above. FYI guys: I`m talking about what I USED TO DO. I`m 66, overweight, and going to have a failed knee replacement done again in a couple of weeks. I will give it my best shot to get back to what has always been a passion. When I had the knees done (one Jan.2000, other May 2000) my buddies bought me tags and in Oct. I was mule deer hunting in Idaho. Just takes work! [/QUOTE]
