I was debating asking this on here, but what the hell...

Does anyone have the Lat/Long? We were trying to find it the other day but had no luck and when I look on Google Maps, I find what I think is the wash and Women's Prison, but can't find the camp. I think we did three laps around the area and couldn't find the camp, but I have a feeling we were off by a mile or two.

VR1266 runs right by it, can't remember the exact turnpoint, I wanna say Echo, though. Zoom in on JMPS and you can find the intersection of the river beds.

You've already lost me. A VR-what? Are those the things that clutter up my sectional chart with random gray lines?

Thanks. Sure enough, I was a few hundred yards off on Google Maps. I'll have to find an excuse to head up there again and see if I can find it for nostalgia's sake.

Lot'sa changes from when I vacationed there in '67. The F-8 low passes were a lot lower than Flaps picture, and effin awesome. They actually got us a lttle down time as we had to hit the deck and quit doin' whatever it was we were doin' until the all-clear sounded.
