I had a bit of an epiphany last night when flying back to Chicago last night. Since this is a real plot of land, why not use Google Earth to scope out these routings. It was actually relatively easy to overlay these entries on to land and get a better visualization of the routing and flow. Better yet, Google Earth has these pretty cool fly-by tours that you can save and share (with a caveat).
Check this out:

So a couple questions:
- Is this worth doing for the other 24 entries?
- If yes, does anyone have the paid version of Google Earth Pro and is willing to create the tours (it's $399! per year)?
- If no, can we live with the 'Trial Version' watermark?
I wonder if Google Earth could be a common platform for future AAC's. It's easier to zip around than Sketchup and it looks like you can draw shapes on the ground with the polygon tool (or as I did here, overlay a drawn image file on top of the land)
