Randall,

The resolution of the satellite shot for rural areas in the mid-west is not as intense as it is for urban areas. The image for Earlville makes it difficult to get a really tight view of the area but, if I'm identifying the track accurately from about 10,000 feet up and it's located just south of U.S. 20, the starting line would be about 1040' and the finish line would be about 10' lower.

Ed F.,

There is an option to change the elevation read-outs to American dimensions. I remember making the change but I don't recall exactly how it's done. You'll need to explore the site in order to find it.
