Satellite image data sets in Google Earth are selectable for, most locations,  often over a remarkably long period.  The April 6, 2009 satellite images for Hogback at White Pass reveal a nice set of tracks at the north end of Gunsight - from space!  They yours?

I'm pretty sure that they are NOT mine.

That foto does not look like any part of Gunsight I've ever skied. It looks more like a part of the Hogback cordillera, but those are pretty nice tracks.

Hey, filbo, was hoping you'd chime in since Hogback's your home and I kinda figured those could have been your lines.  Yes, I suppose Gunsight proper is that particular rock, the shape of which gives it it's name.  Yet it reigns over an amphitheater that just might be referred to, at least casually, as Gunsight, hence my description.   Anyway, in the spirit of accuracy and of naming lines after those who've skied them (yes, mostly bigger lines on bigger mtns), do you - or anyone else- have names for some of the lines here?


edit to add: for those not familiar with the area and to add a sense of scale, the longer lines visible within the pic are in the neighborhood of 1000 vf or a bit more.
