No fresh powder

Google Street View began in 2007 with coverage of just five cities. Over the past decade, the camera-equipped car, aerial drones and the on-foot trekkers have captured some interesting images from locations around the world.

For example, here's a picture of a skier on the very green slopes of Mont Blanc, near the border of France and Italy.

Originally published April 23, 2018 and updated as weird new Google Street View images are spotted.
