Yeah, I've never seen that view, so I checked it out on Google Earth. That's an extreme telephoto shot, which compresses the depth. It's about 40 miles from the Shoreline Yacht Group building in the front to the Mendenhall Ridge in the back. The ridge is about 4800 feet high.

Honestly, this kind of 'mildly interesting' stuff (and the heartwarming stuff) is what we come to BP for. Not the divisive, stereotyping, biased stuff. Thanks.
