I always spend time looking out of the window at the ground below. I try to recognize any landmarks to figure out where I am. Long story short I have noooo idea!



Is there anyone here who could look out of the window and figure out where he is?
Some routes are pretty easy to place, within 100 miles or so: STL-LAX

The green trees and cornfields of Missouri
The square-mile checkerboard of eastern and central Kansas
The irrigation circles of western Kansas and eastern Colorado
The mountains of south central and southwestern Colorado/northern New Mexico
The high plateaus and mesas of southern Utah/northern Arizona
The Grand Canyon/Lake Powell/Lake Mead
The low desert of western Arizona/the Colorado River/eastern California
Palm Springs
Los Angeles
