Graphing all of the US Ski Resort Base & Summit Elevation also Looks Like a Mountain.

I've always been fascinated by how data can be visualized but was not very good at creating it. As a ski fan, the various mountain-related stats also was of interest. So working on that, here's the first set that I created. It is a bar graph of all the US ski slopes with their base and summit elevations displayed. The height of each bar is the difference between those too. Vertical drop is a separate stat and not shown here.

The Real Top Gear UK Locations Maps - Clarkson, Hammond, and May around the World

Many Top Gear UK fans want to have their own adventures by recreating the road trips made by Clarkson, Hammond, and May. They want to drive the same roads, see the same sites, and relax in the same places that those three blokes did.

But figuring out where they've traveled is not actually easy. The maps shown on the program are approximations at best. The routes that are drawn usually do not follow actual roads or trails. The hosts will mention a few places from time to time which can help locate sites.

Luckily, Google has come to the rescue. With their updated satellite imaging, street views, and user-uploaded photos, its now easier to trace the route that Top Gear used. I've marked these locations on the 3 separate maps (broken up because of limits by Google) and divide by episode. These encompass all parts of the world outside of Europe. Because of all the places that they've been to in Europe, that will take much longer.

I don't know how to get these My Maps to be displayed in Google Maps. You'll have to use the Street View option on regular Google Maps to get a better look at these locations. Feel free to send a message if you find a location to add or want to correct one.
