Upcoming Launch

There is flooding in the area. We will not know until Saturday if the main entrance is flooded. If it is, we can still get to the site from the North. (See the above map) (Winnsboro Entrance is the one that could be flooded). If you come from North LA and exit in Mangham, it's the normal way you get there. If you come from Winnsboro and turn into Goldmine Plantation, you need to pass the entrance to get to the Mangham entrance. If it is flooded, it is just past the large plantation house on the right. You can turn around and get to the other entrance. We can post something but most of you will be in route.
None of the flooding will affect launch operations but expect a few more water hazards.
The fields are largely planted now so no driving on the fields and we will need to walk in between rows (as opposed to on top of them. Please make sure your guests are aware of this.
I'll get there with the trailer no later than 8:30am Saturday.
