Actually, the discussion about the green shading is ok -- I re-opened it by posting that I'd asked Joseph from Gmap4.

As for that trip report... I'm STILL trying to get the entire set of pictures uploaded, with less than great success. Seems I have crappy Internet service lately. Must be too many people downloading movies and such on my street. mad

I am curious, too, what the shading is supposed to represent. Being a computer geek myself, I am sure it is not due to some unknown glitch. You can follow the shading all over the Sierra, and it certainly doesn't make any logical sense. But it IS there, caused by someone's setting up some sort of shading routine to show up with corners and lines at specific locations. This sort of random garbage occurs all the time. I just spent over a day doing work someone else paid a good salary was unable to do. Incompetence rears its ugly head every so often.

This thread can go on and on... I will start a new one with a real trip report in due time.

Alright, need to go try to upload a few more....
