Getting there

[87manche]

Does anyone have the actual street address, or some better directions than those on Flatnasty's website?

I'm trying to find it in google maps, for directions and some overhead views.

[HaleYes]

Straight from their "Contact Us" link:

HCI Box 725 Jadwin, MO , 65501

[87manche]

yeah, but I think that's a PO box and not the street address.

[HaleYes]

I know MO uses letters for road names. Did you try it? I dunno.:dunno:

yeah, google maps just defaults to the middle of jadwin.

[RedHeep]

I've tried every map website and none of them find that address.

[Rev Den]

Ummm...

Did you see the size of Jadwin?

From Rolla, Take route 72 south to Salem. Take route 19 south to K . Go west on K to ZZ . Turn Right (North). Flat Nasty is approximatly 1 mile on the right.



I am sure you will find it.

yes, I saw that it was about 4 roads, I'm sure I'll find it. I just wanted to see if google earth was rocking any aerial views.

[Rev Den]

Try this:

37 27 55.15 N
91 35 39.93 W

I think that is it.


Rev

[87manche]

that is right next to jadwin so that's probably it. Doesn't look like the USGS has updated that in a while, so it doesn't show anything but woods.
Thanks Rev :)

Notice the gravel roads?

I think that be the access roads. Maybe one of the guys who has been there can verify that.

Sweet, I can plot that in the gps.

[sw_mi_xj]

i just compared the posted gps coordinates in google earth ,to the trail map posted on the flat nasty site.
there are several points that match , look for the roads that go from the office north-west through " top knot " and over to " sway back" . i would agree these are correct .

nice job rev den , :cheers:

For those without GPS:

You pretty much take the main road through Salem, go about 7-8 miles (maybe its as much as 12), then you'll see a gas station on your right. Turn right there. Then maybe 1 mile down the road you'll see the sign. Its that simple.
HTH :)

If I remember correctly, you actually go south out of Salem on highway 19 about 5 miles, turn right on highway "K" and go west approxomately 12 miles. Then turn right again on road "ZZ", then go about a mile or so to the sign.

This is my recollection ... and I have it plotted on MS Streets & Trips.

No, no, no,...you've all got it wrong.
South out of Salem till you hit the old blacktop, follow it until you can see the where the old barn used to be. Turn left there, and head east for 3 miles, turn at the T road and you should pass three rusty mail boxes. Then right at where Aunt Mable's house bunt down back in 1922(you shoudl be able to see the old porch steps from the road), you will then have to go across a small bridge.(If the creek is out, let me know and I'll send you around from the back side.) There should be a "Narrow Bridge" sign with 10 .22cal bullet holes in it. It's just on the other side of the hill after you cross the bridge. If you get turned around, stop and ask ol' man Pearson. He'll be on his porch relaxing with a cup of coffee. His house is right before the T road. Honk 3 times before you pull in the drive so he knows you're friendly, or he might shoot.

I know I'll recall the landmarks when I see them, but right off the top of my head, I cannot.

Do you remember what that place is there at the intersection of 29 and K?

It seems to me too, there is something at the intersection of K and ZZ ... a construction company, or maybe a volunteer firehouse?

Do you remember, Mark? Landmarks would really help those that have not been there yet.

I mostly remember the gas station 'cuz when Brad and I went to refuel, it looked like he was going to tip over turning the corner there.

The turn onto K off 29 has some sort of funky hippy tee-shirt shack on the far corner. The turn onto ZZ has a fire station on the right.

found a better map, the canoe place is a mile from flat nasty.
got the link from the neighbors ORA mag, they had a little writeup about flat nasty.

[HaleYes]

OK, we found the park. Now, where's Bartons?

[bshaw]
