I don't know about the address, but this place is WAY on out there in the boonies.
There IS a field map thankfully.
For those curious and waiting for photos (these are just my words from what I saw):
The staging area is a clear flat area of field, maybe 2-3x the size of HITW, so plenty of room for parking, camping and set up, but no natural shade.
Most notably, This place looked to be almost all dense brush. With a wide main path and a land land bridge over a shallow creek. There are a few structures in place for cover and bunkers.
The main road was wide enough to allow us to do a vehicle based game, which was nice, and I hope we can incorporate that again in the future.
There is PLENTY of shade on the field with all the dense foliage. Means less heat and more bugs. Also means lots of cover with a potentially limited engagement range outside of areas along the main road. Those of you who fancy yourselves sneaky brush crawlers or just really love woodland, this is definitely for you.
But BRING those radios. And bringing whistles for trouble is a great idea too. Long pants and sleeves are a must in my opinion. There's not much mud but there is a lot of foliage, including fallen trees and thorn bushes, covered by knee-waist high brush.

Guys, if you follow the street directions, you really can't miss it. It's on the west side of the road (right hand side). I've been here before (a lot of you have actually) it's a cool field. I didn't get to see all of it, but what I did I liked.

Since I know people are concerned that cjwhitewolf or OpDoc might still be involved with this field, they are NOT.
Easy1 has done a great job of adding small things to the field and getting insurance for events. He and I will be hosting an actual large scale OP in mid to early August out there. The field is really pretty awesome. A great place for woodland battles with a few bunkers here and there.
It's not that far in "the boonies" it's no more than 2 miles off of US-131 so don't worry about getting lost.
Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it to this one, I'll be in NY for Northern Wind 6, but best of luck to ya Easy, and thanks for getting this field up and running again.

Do the airsoft world a favor, and keep out of Easy1's hair cj, nobody wants your fake Navy SEAL lies around.
