Aspen Fire and other cool satelite images

Post by Tsyroc »

I found these images of the Aspen Fire interesting because it's visible from where I live and it's still spreading even now.

This next is a very large high resolution photo of the Aspen Fire and the surrounding area. Parts of Tucson and some of the other towns in the area can be seen as well as the fires. Note this photo is really big so if you have a slow connection it is going to take a long time to load.

Here's a link to the main site. A pretty nifty deal with satellite photos of places around the world.

It took me a day or two to realise the mountain on fire to the southeast of where I live is the Aspen Fire. I thought Mt. Lemmon was MUCH further away than that.
