It doesn't cover the entire of New England yet, but here's an example of Crotched Mountain.

Based on the snow cover, I'd say it was around this time last year, this particular image shows the new trail cut off the peak.

Be interesting to see what other ski areas it ocvers with 'Birds Eye'. Here's part of Pats Peak:

Looks like it only covers southern NH/Mass, couldnt get birds eye for any other ski areas

Cool! The mighty Sundown:

I would guess that's early April and it looks like Nor'easter is one of the last runs to melt out. Might have to head up and earn turns on the mud bumps after they close this spring!

Here's another view:

This I would guess is early January 2007 based on all trails but Gunbarrel being covered.

Neat stuff!

flatlands of Mass.
I wonder how old the images really are...I did a search on my neighborhood and my house doesn't have the addition I had built on a few years ago.

My house's eye view was from this spring based on how where the freshly seeded part of my yard around my new shed is ;)

Mine is definitely from last fall, as is the one from Crotched Mt.

Searching on my house, the picture is not new at all. The swimming pool and deck that was installed 4 years ago isn't there, and, actually, based on the cars in the driveway I'd actually say the picture was taken closer to 6 years ago :blink:

This does, however, look like a really cool tool.

The pictures of Exeter New Hampshire were taken last November. I am positive because there is a skid of siding where I normally park my car.

Where you looking at the birds eye view, or the aerial view?
