HP, Zoom works great. Very productive lunch break!
Shame to see so many states with no ranges. I wish there was a way to fill in those blank states.
I guess another reason to have a map with ranges.

My slapped together map is just to give a rough idea of range locations. By no means do I think this is professional (elementary students could have done this). I imagine something better can be created but that is above my skill level.

If a locations map is going to be used by the organizaton there should be a better looking/more detailed way of doing this.

As Philip mentioned, I have charted all the ranges I could find using Google Earth and I sent this data to a former IHMSA editor. I don't remember who right now. I still have this information on my computer back home. Using GOOGLE Earth you can zoom in and actually see the ranges from satellite photos. But you have to have Google Earth installed (free download) on you computer for this to work. This was a pain to type on a smartphone while parked on the tallest hill I could find so I could get a signal.

Kansas has great views, there's nothing to get in your way! Lol
Told wife she's lucky IHMSA is my mid life crisis, it's cheaper than a Corvette or chasing younger women!
