The clouds and snowlines were a bit more tricky than usual.<br /><br />What I enjoyed most about the search was trying to nail down the names of the geographic features - that's where the challenge gets interesting for me.<br /><br />Thanks for posting these types of challenges, SF. It's fun to give the old research skills an exercise once in a while.Ron Schotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10020094512548523216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8693614218792476252.post-8096897894759825522014-01-07T14:46:05.268-08:002014-01-07T14:46:05.268-08:00Ron, you got it!

Caught a refueling tanker hop from Fairbanks to Omaha. Got to lie in the refueling pod with windows for the entire trip down the inside passage on a day so clear I could see fishing boats and houses on beautiful blue water.<br /><br />Thanks for the reminder.Utemikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09578504472525149131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8693614218792476252.post-69987331103788871772014-01-06T19:31:06.676-08:002014-01-06T19:31:06.676-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Utemikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09578504472525149131noreply@blogger.com
