Reminder for Newbies: MagicMaps

I don't know how often satellite images of the Bakken are updated, but often enough to make "MagicMaps" a lot of fun.

I was curious to see how MagicMaps is coming along with new innovations and I decided to check out the Brad Olson pad west of Williston:

http://www.google.com/maps?saddr=48.1828803,-103.81088&daddr=&dirflg=&hl=en

When you go to the link, you can zoom in, and clearly see two pumpers on the pad and two rows of tanks, nine tanks in each row (unless I miscounted, which I am prone to do).

Note to first time users: for some reason when looking for rigs or wells, you need to enter that information twice.
