Denver Airport Under Snow

Denver Airport Under Snow by ashleyniblock.
On a flight from San Francisco to Washington, I flew directly over Denver which was snowed in after the recent snowstorm there. I had a great view of the airport, so I took this shot.

Mo.murrey then enhanced it here with a side by side comparison shot without snow from Google Earth.

Found via BoingBoing if you were wondering where all the views were coming from.

Likewise, (arrived here via NewsNow Current Affairs US and BB), and I'd LOVE to see the full resolution. (There must be a lot of snow covered planes at gates down there. ) You could certainly sell it... maybe that's why you are teasing us? Thanks and Happy Holidays.

Oh should have remembered...TONS of folks over at www.airliners.net/ (including aviation professionals) would go ga'ga over this too. You yourself might also benefit from posting it on that reputable site too. Good luck!

Replaced with the full-res version; good idea Ideation5. I couldn't see any plane outlines under the snow though, sadly. I also updated the license to make it shareable.

The area around Concourses A, and B, look fairly clear. Concourse C and the parking lots around the Jeppesen terminal less so. For those that have never been to DIA; no planes come to the main terminal, only to the concourses. Concourse A can be reached by the train and pedestrian bridge from the main terminal. Concourse B, and C only by the underground train. Maybe you could use the add a note feature to point out where the different areas are.

Great shot.

P.S. I live 100 miles north. The kids had to walk down the road today to get on the buss, because we are still drifted in, and I can't get my ol John Deere Fired up.
