Generate a panorama (link)
Jun 29, 2015, 22:16
When looking at Postman's recent photos of his trip to Wales, I was interested in what you can see from here as it looks like some view.

I can't remember if I've posted this link before but I really like this site so thought I'd mention it in case it is of interest to anyone.

You can click on any spot on the map, doesn't have to be a hill top, and you can generate a panorama which tells you the names of hills and how far they are away.

example

http://tinyurl.com/nvx9nua (hopefully close to where postman's photo is) says you can see Cairnsmore of Fleet 200km away!

Sorry if this has been posted before or everyone knows about it already :-)

That's pretty cool, Howth and Slieve Donard and all!

That is pretty cool, it would have to be a very clear day to see that far, wouldn't it?

Earlier this year on a hill near Helmsdale I could make out the Cairngorms OKish. That was about 120 km in a straight line. You'd need some weather for 200km!

We must have always travelled. Seeing that far and then just staying put - surely we've always been too nosey for that?
