Cool.

Can't see anything on Google maps. Resolution too low.

I don't see it. It may be a browser setting or some 'helper' program installed on your computer.

Try this link, it shows the lake inside the park. You can zoom in with the bar graph on the left and you can move map by
clicking on anyside of the map

And people wonder why they can't find Bigfoot.

Thanks very much; that's what I'm starting to suspect. That's a new spyware behavior to me.

You have an adware or spyware program. I do not see that.

But, I had it happen to me one time.

It is not FR. I suggest running a spyware scan.

Yeah, Terraserver has much better resolution in that area.

I like the fact you can toggle between a topo map and the aerial photo.

Found Crystal Creek on the topo map but it's hard to track it in the photo. It's easy to see the trails and roads, though.

Interesting.

You can really zoom in on that one. I didn't find it though.

A virtual waterfall?

Last year a group of volunteers wandered the wilds of Yellowstone and managed to map more than three hundred waterfalls that were previously unknown. Most were fairly small (5-10 feet), but some were pretty large (50-80 feet).

Whiskeytown Falls? Oh boy! Are they single or triple malt, I wonder?

With today's imagining technology via sattelite and air how can anything be "undiscovered?". From a story I read about the fallas it looks like loggers and hikers have left evidence that many have visited in the past.

I searched all around Crystal Creek there....no sign of a waterfall on the map except maybe one place, and I think that is probably a sand bar or something that looks like whitewater.

Don't feel bad. Those spyware devils come up with all sorts of new ways to do things, and it is annoying.

When you see a link, you just assume it is from the site you are visiting.

Some sites do put ads into their linnks, btw.
