OK, gents its been a busy day! The location of the field has changed. The parcel of land we were pursing closer to BTR came through last week and is significantly larger than the site in Washington. We had an idea this might come through hence, our not posting further info on the Washington field. Any way, thank you all for your patience in giving us the time to secure the Port Vincent field. It is 700 acres plus with much more favorable terrain. Also as you can see it is much closer to the main cities. Also there is a Wal-Mart within 10 minutes of the field located on Airline highway, groceries, camping supplies, etc.

Wal-Mart Supercenter Store #5056
17585 Airline Highway
Prairieville, LA 70769
(225) 677-7375

Field address is 19247 Scivique Ln, Port Vincent, LA. Entrance is at
30 20’56.03N 90 49'27.84W.

Regional overview:

Okay i edited the address to be correct and it pulls up in Google Earth just fine.

You had Scivicque which is in Denham Springs

This is apparently Scivique (Lack of "c") which is in Port Vincent

All i can say is wtf to the naming schemes

All good now

Okay needs to be noted that Google Earth actually has the street name spelled wrong, but it will still lead you to the right place.

In reality the street name is Scivicque, Google thinks its Scivique, but the car GPS had the proper name down. Yahoo Maps wouldnt find the actual address number but it will get you to the proper street, just follow it all the way down. Mapquest is the only one that is 100% correct.
Isnt really a problem but clarification helps i suppose.

Should have seen how far off course Google Maps threw me yesterday. Muddy, hilly, 20 foot drop on one side, secluded dirt roads right after a nice downpour and not knowing where the hell you are always fun.
