prairie dogs

I have a relative who ranches cattle on a BIG piece of land.

Last year, I took a group of guys from Illinois and we went out to Western Nebraska and did what we could to help him with his Prairie Dog problem.

This year, one of the guys, Dan, is coming back out and we're going to give it another shot (pun there, in case you missed it).

Well last year I had topo maps ready for the trip -- which ended up getting us out of trouble when I missed a turn and got completely turned around. This year I bring you thermal imaging!!

The image is actually rendered using an application called "dem3d" from the USGS and USGS DEM data. Email me if you want to make your very own rendering of someplace near you.
