google-- street view

[Sandy B]

Google maps has a very cool function, street view. While looking at Hot Springs NC I saw a hiker headed north out of Hot Springs NC ( just over the RR tracks)
http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=35.893326,-82.826014&spn=0,359.961376&z=15&layer=c&cbll=35.893281,-82.826121&panoid=p5yTA0iNySf-xViVoEsowA&cbp=12,143.63078641169636,,0,5

So does anybody know who it is.

I might be off but it looks like Punchline walking south on the trail in front of the brick church in Hot Springs.

[Powder River]

Looks like northbound to me. Isn't that field in the background adjacent to the campground?

[Serial 07]

yes

Huh, says Caratunk! Heading north it you adjust the map.

[Sly]

Opps sorry, I was looking at the 2nd link! Your dude is definitely heading north on the AT.

[Sly]

Also, for the Hot Springs hiker, it looks like a Six Moon Designs pack.

I'm fairly new to this amazing technology. I have Google Earth loaded on my computer. Can I put an address in and see, for instance, my mother's street / house in OH ?? :-?

Yeah. I put in my address and it zoomed right in. The photo has to be a couple years old though, the shed I put out back isn't in the photo.

Using a mac. command-shift-4 gives you a copy feature. Saves as a pdf.

[BumpJumper]

That is totally awesome that you found that hiker on there. Yes, Google Earth is totally cool. I use it all the time in my line of work.

[scenic]

wow, amazing, how to find the hiker?

[fehchet]

Shows me sunning naked in my yard. Must have been that Piper Cub buzzing me taking pictures.
