Planning in a rural landscape is a completely different ballgame than an urban setting. Look at the chaotic pattern of these patented mining claims along the Alpine Loop Back Country Byway. When miners found a mineral vein or lode, they laid a predictable lot size (typically 300' x 1500' or 600' x 1500') over an unpredictable landscape. This video shows the results.
Although we did this several years ago, I think it's still a compelling piece. I really like the effect of bringing the claims up as we fly along. There's more on this beautiful area of the state at http://www.alpineloop.com.
