last year I tried Google earth. Wanting pic's of the lands that I hunt but the pic's were not much help. They were very blurry when I zoomed in.

 Now a few days ago I tried the same locations again and WOW what a difference I can see trails I made in the swamp,tire ruts in the old logging road. New pic's better software I don't know what they did but check it out. The new and better pic's are not all over the state but maybe it will help you  where you hunt

 Using a GPS you can mark your stands, trails or roads covered by tree tops any thing you want and best of all it's Free and yes you can print them out
www.googleearth.com  or search google earth

hope this helps
Are you a hunter or do you just kill things? Respect the wildlife!

I agree BowHunter.  GoogleEarth is a must have tool and now that version 4 is out they have updated our land in Grand Rapids.  I have marked some higgland in the middle of the swamp that I am going to check out next weekend if things are slow.  It's great that you can write down the coordinates and plug them into your GPS and go right to it.
