Look for the big checkerboard pattern; it's a dead giveaway. The big green circles are also a dead giveaway, but in some areas, like the western plains, the wheat fields stretch as far as the eye can see, and may not be easy to distinguish from a tall-grass prairie from a distance. Rangeland may be impossible to distinguish from a short-grass prairie. Tree farms may also be difficult to distinguish from old-growth forests - for someone who is not familiar with the appearance of old-growth forests. Or even driven.
