Google Earth Impact Crater — here’s mine!

So I saw this post on BoingBoing about an article describing using Google Earth to discover ancient impact craters -- and remembered a post I made on a previous blog (now lost to history) about doing just that with Google Maps (satellite view).

So, here's where this image was made in GE:

The location is at:
N 59 08 12.29
W 115 12 40.07

Which puts it in the northwest corner of Alberta.

I checked the University of Brunswick Earth Impact Database -- nada.

...so, is it real, or something else?
