Very nice website. Extremely helpful. Thanks! P.S. - For those not finding elevation info, click just below the balloon (til the cursor becomes a cross) and you'll get it.

Need an application to hook up to Excel to find altitude at many lat/long points.

Really easy to use, applicable resources you have here. Nice one.

I'm quite impressed with this! Did find hovering over marker not always revealing the spot height, but clicking outside the map and returning to the marker seemed to do the trick!
