Ran across this site today.

Typed in Naches trail, and I came up with a map of it.

Also found one for Evan's creek.

Corey,

I've used it some to browse areas that I don't have maps for.

Now that you know the coordinates for the trail go to Terrafly and select advanced and enter (47.0872, -121.3203) and you can see the satellite photos of the area. They aren't real current (I think I read somewhere that most are 5-8 years old) but interesting anyway. I haven't tried to find out if there is a way to tell just how old any map is.

Sometimes I can pretty well what the terrain is like from the shadows in the photos, sometimes not, so I end up using both the Topo and the photos to get an idea what things are like.

You can get some free software at this site http://www.jdmcox.com that works with the Terraserver site (unrelated to Terrafly as far as I know) that will download the photos to your disk. Warning! This could be REAL slow on a 56K modem, and with a cable modem you can download huge amounts of data. I find it really easy to say "I wonder where that goes..." and waste way to much time. The program will also rx GPS data and plot your position on the photo if you want a cheap program to do that.

exactly, but that's really cool. i used to to see where some trails i've been on go past where i've been on them so far. almost takes the fun out of exploring, but i couldn't help it.

 

Topozone is the best!! I use it for every trip I have been on. Just as usefull as Mapquest.
