"outlaw" locations, post them here

Don't like droping $10 bucks to play on a field? Let us know where you play.

Couple places I've been:

'The Mile Marker' on Interstate 84

Directions: From highway 89 in south weber get on Instestate 84 westbound. around a mile down the road you will see mile marker 86, pull off the road, park and step over the fence.

Description: Woodsy with an large open central area. Some bunkers have been built from branches and some plywood. Games can range from speedball /w an asymetcrical field, to base capturing betwine two plywood fort-like structors. somewhat well known and frequented by players. I would rate it 7 of 10. Not the best place to play, but pleanty fun.


Riverdale park

Directions: From riverdale road, turn south onto 700w (the eastmost road before the viaduct crossing the weber river). Then imediatly turn left(east) follow towards the south to the parkinglot. Now, grab all your gear and start walking south past the gate on the road. You will be walking though a Disc Golf course so watch out for flying discs (they are heavy and will hurt if they hit you!). stay on the road going south untill you are well into the trees (past holes 6 & 7).

Discription: Very woodsy. Lots of large trees, and lots of brush, but enough room to manuver in and around them. Nearly ideal terain for recball. Just watch out for bikers and walkers, they may stray into your playing area. I give this area a 9 of 10, the only downside is the long walk in.

I will hopefully post pics soon

There's a small field of the speedball variety up in Ogden next door to Mulligan's(The golf course). It is owned by the course owner and he said it was kool that we played on it as long as we didn't after a it rained so it wouldn't get chewed up. Just keep it clean and be safe and we can play there.

Bauer. This is a very popular place among paintballers, it's an old abondoned mining town that was evacuated in the early-to-mid eighties, lots of houses, an old train station, lots of foliage, trees, swamp area, hills, etc. No One is supposed to play there, as per trespassing or something, but everyone does anyway, to get there, head out to tooele, and go through town and head when you get out, head about 4 mi. south, you'll be on a long stretch of highway, you'll see the army depot on the right, keep going about 2 mi, and you'll see a turnoff on the right, follow that turnoff and go over the train tracks, the frist left will be the road to the county landfill, ignore that one and keep going, and take the next dirt road on the left, keep following that road for 1/2 a mile and you'll get right to it.

YOu can also play at the WVC field. IT is an outlaw field on 3300 south and 1300 west. It is accesible through the parking lot of the new West Valley City Cultrual arts center. Once you turn into the parking lot head north east towards a large berm and follow the road as it turns to the left and park under the trees. We play every saturday from 7 am to 11 or so. Show up and join in.

me and my buddies go up into the west side of utah lake. there are so many different spots. we have played almost everywhere up there. people shoot shot guns and drive fourwheelers up there so you jus need to find a spot where no ones at. there are so many different places though that you can just find one that suits you and what you like to do.

Go to the provo airport on saturday's, it's byop, and that's when all of the real competition is. The only problem is air, cuz there's not many people with big air tanks that they haul around, but pegleg paintball's about 5 min's from it.
