Default Long Ranch Google map

Here is a link to a map I made of Long Ranch based one I found elsewhere. I thought it would be helpful to get a look at the layout and terrain. It is editable by anyone with a Google account (if my boundries are off, please fix!), so I thought if anyone wanted to add a placemark for a few of the more interesting locations in the ranch, it might save some wandering time. Could probably get Joe to add some stuff if he is so inclined. If ya'll think this would be useful, one could be done for Spring Creek and other places.

That's nice. I thinks I figured out the GPS coordinates out, if anybody wants them.

I think I have the Lat. Long as : N 30 40' 40.8" W 98 31' 21.2"

That should be the front entry.

That's very close to what I came up with.

It's too large to attach, but here's a link:

Now, when you get there you will need to plot the trails on the map... for future use...
