Cool Maps!

[saF]

I was pointed to something on another forum that might be of interest toi everyone who goes climbing in the great outdoors. I had heard rumors that this was available but nobody was sure of where to find it, or maybe they were just greedy and unwilling to share!

This is what a few places in Nova Scotia look like!

Dover

Unfortunately not all locations are available at the same resolution. But this much is pretty cool. I was hoping to get LOC Polly's Cove, and Chebucto Head/Duncan's Cove.

I'll let someone from NB look up the climbing areas around there.

I tried to find WElsford but only found topographic maps not arial photos. Any ideas? Welsford is just north of Saint John NB.

Oops I copied the wrong links in for Dover and Grover... Give me a few minutes to find the right ones again.

As for the topos, not sure. Maybe they don't have any satellite photos of that area. I'll see if I can find some.

Part of LOC
Grover
Chebucto Head/Duncan's Cove

Can't seem to get to Pace's Lake in any detail....

Fred, I tried to look at the Saint John River valley and was not able to see anything either. Earlier today I was not able to see anything close up (relative term) in LOC, but was able to just now. Maybe try again later sometime. Hmm in the 10 minutes I was trying to find Paces Lake, I went back to look at Welsford and was able to see something. Not down to the same scale as the maps above, but something.
