Hang Gliders and Paragliders on Marshall Peak in Google Earth

This is the Google Earth view of Marshall Peak as of 5 June, 2009. It shows seven hang gliders and two paragliders on Marshall Peak. I don't know when the image changed from just the bare peak, but I think that's what was shown as recently as a couple of months ago.
