Google Earth rink shots

Postby Joe » Mon Apr 01, 2013 9:48 am

I've posted my own rink here before...but just found that one of my customers' rinks is there too. Both are from the 2011-2012 season, but it's tough to tell if it's in the early winter or spring. My guess would be spring.

At any rate, I want to start this thread to capture some neat satellite backyard rink photos. If you're looking up yours, try changing the angle of the shot or zooming in and out. These maps are made from composite photos stitched together, and some are from different seasons or years.

Here's the Backyard-Hockey.com home rink:

And here is one of my customers' rinks:

No such luck for me. I do, however, have a great picture from the Google Car of the destruction to my front lawn by the grubs last summer.
