Go to: http://maps.google.com/
type in the location like say: Boulder, Colorado and then click "Search" button.
You will first get the street map.
Now click on the word "Satellite" in the upper-right corner
You should can click and drag the satellite image to view other adjacent areas.
the slider bar is for the zoom level. 2x, 4x, 8x, 16x etc. etc.
