Additional notes
The detailed guide was last updated February 2023 but is still linked by CHGPA's current February 2026 inventory. Its copied Directions coordinate is stale and belongs to Taylor Farm; the distinct Long Hill header coordinate and current index were used.
Map pin (exact launch)
The Long Hill guide's own header publishes 38.59174, -78.46256; the current CHGPA index continues to list the site.
Navigation warning
Call the named landowners before arriving and use the current CHGPA guide. The old guide's Directions section accidentally repeats Taylor Farm coordinates; do not navigate from that copied line.
