About Us
Measuring on Google Earth
Please note that if you use Google Earth on Mount Ararat you must double the measurement. For instance the Ark is 76' wide but on Google it will show 36'. You can verify what I am saying by measuring cars. They average 14' 6", but on Mount Ararat they will only measure 6' to 7'. ( A Mini cooper is approx. 10') Also Satellite and Photos have resolution diminished, and key areas are shadowed out. Area is classified. This is part of the reason you can not see the Ark, besides the fact that the majority is covered by lava rock at about 14,000 feet (4200 meters).
