If you were able to see it from satelite I doubt it. The majority of the land in the US is undeveloped and owned by the state or federal goverment.

It's just sad to see the state our economic industry has fallen to. I remember a time when a logging company could pay a few thousand dollars to some officials reelection campaign and in exchange get free reign to clearcut thousands of acres of national parks. My tax dollars would even be put to good use to build logging roads to facilitate such, hundreds of people would be employed, and fresh free newspaper would be delivered to line my birdcage. It's sad to see foreign companies undercutting even this American institution.
