[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 935962, member: 74902"] I was under the impression that Google Earth always figured distance over land. So, if you were figuring distance across a 45 degree canyon that had walls 100 yards deep, Google would say the distance was 200 yards. But if you were standing there and used a range finder, the distance across the canyon would only be 150 yards (line of sight). [/QUOTE]
