Great Aerial Photo Website

I did a search for golf courses on this website and came up with these. Click on the photos to see similar pictures. Most of these courses are in BC (with some in Alberta and Ontario). I bet some of you Canadian GCA’ers will find this particularly interesting.

Furry Creek almost looks playable from that altitude!  :P

Could you post an aerial of Capilano?

Thanks, Andrew.

Andrew,

Thanks for the Banff links.  Just brings back great memories of
being there with some of the regulars on here.  I really enjoyed playing the newer 18th and its great to have an overhead.

Toronto GC *and* Lakeview in the same photo, to be precise. Great!

Poor Furry Creek, the butt of all jokes  ;D

I actually spent a while looking for Capilano but couldn't find any pictures of it.

Andrew,

That's great!  Thank you. Old Point Grey looks pretty good!

The members at Cap probably have banned aerial photography!

Andrew, where are you located? We were thinking of getting a group of GCAers together next year and hope you are available. I have seen your photos of Sagebrush and the new course west of Kamloops and they are great as well.

Thanks again.

Bob,

I will be in Vancouver this spring so we should definately get a group together. That would be a lot of fun.
