If you want, you can borrow my CA SCAR, 9 Mags, and ALICE gear to carry it all. I'll probably be running my bolt action for this... Or you can just hang out and watch how things go down.

So I see we're now meeting at the field. And I looked at the thread with the pretty picture but I'm still lost on how to get to the field. I kinda need street names and all that good stuff to find my way. And as is I'd end up wondering around like a chicken with it's head cut off looking for the field. Anybody some directions that can get me there? I'd be willing to just follow someone but I have to pick up a friend from North Albany Church at 10:30 so I'll be cutting it close to get there as is.

I have never been there, but from what I can tell, you turn west off Hwy 99 just north of LBCC. Maybe Bond can chime in with what exact streets to turn on to get to the actual field. I am following someone thankfully!

Fluffy,

It looks like you go south on 99e then turn west on 53rd you take a right on Elk Run Dr. then right on Cougar Ct. then a left on left on Bobcat Ave. then a slight right back on to Elk Run Dr. the access road appaers to be right where Elk turns into Salmon. Thats what I can tell from google maps anyway.

Lame. I was looking forward to going to my first skirm, but now have caught the sickness that my son brought home from his daycare. Jester was nice enough to even let me use his SCAR, and I went and picked up some ESS goggles and a shemagh too. Thanks for putting this together, and I'm sure I'll be ready to go for the next one, whenever that may be.

The access road is at the rear of the 53rd neighborhood.

Going down 53rd Ave. SW Albany, OR 97321:


1. Take a right at Elk Run Dr. SW.

2. Turn right at Cougar Ct.

3. Turn left at Bobcat Avenue

4. Turn right back onto Elk Run Dr.

5. Follow the tracks through the field (straight) to the actual ATAC Field.



Red road = Elk Run Dr.
Purple road = Cougar Ct.
Blue Road = Bobcat Ave.
Yellow path = Offroad field path
Orange Dot = Approximate ATAC Field location
(Ignore the white line, that was a mistake.)

Thanks Bond. I'll be there as close to 11 as I can with me and another guy. Sorry I can't bring more, but the rest of my friends are either pussies or "low on ammo" :p
