Cascades gallery & KMZ

Yesterday we had a top ride out at Cascades.

Aside from Justin getting lost it was fun all round and I took a few (ahem) photos to slap in the Cascades gallery. By pure chance (or perhaps planning) Craig knocked up a KMZ file for Cascades last week which I've merged into the other one, check it out: NoBMoB KMZ.

This comes with some nice new features:

  • Topographic overlays.
  • Click on the camera icons to see shots from those locations.
  • Click on pictures in the bubbles that pop up to view a larger one in the gallery.

Cascades & Manly Dam are covered in detail, Terrey Hills briefly and Oxford Falls just has the topo overlay for now.

Tried really hard to get the 'pins' in the right places but please comment if I've stuffed up!

KMZ Online

Tonight I uploaded a Google Earth .KMZ file with a few locations: NoBMoB KMZ.

At the risk of repeating most of what I mentioned on the rides page here's an example (Manly Dam) of how this looks (click to enlarge):

Very limited at the mo, but hopefully this will grow (like... send me your routes!).
