Again, the same problem applies as with Invis 10'rad:  to my knowledge,
all invisibility-type spells work on a number of BEINGS, not mass.
Otherwise, you'd make the land you're standing on invisible, which would
be a glaringly obvious indication that a party is moving in.  Aside from
that, in forest, it'd suck if trees turn invisible as you near them...
