Map ain’t to no scale nohow! Try not to get lost because your cell phone probably won’t work out here unless maybe you’re at the top of a hill. Most maps are wrong out thisaway, even this one. Watch out for cows in the road & stuff like that. If you want a better map, click on the link above for the Google Map. Try zooming in & out, and the satellite view.
