Fly to Silver Star's New Golf Course in Google Earth
If you want to find out exactly where Silver Star's new effluent spray area (shaped like golf course fairways) is you can fly to it in virtual reality using Google Earth.
Simply copy and paste the following coordinates in the "Fly To" box on Google Earth. Unfortunately, Google Earth satellite photos are about 4 years old, and so the clearcut fairways do not show up. What you will see however are the wetlands in the golf course area. These wetlands are also shown on the golf course map below. The 4 logged fairways correspond to holes #10, 11, 17, and 18. If you expand the "Geographic Web" submenu in the "Layers" toolbox and tick the "Panoramio" check box, you can view photos of the clearcuts by clicking on the small blue squares in the aerial view.
