Some snow game pictures.

These were taken by a buddy during my last game on the 27th. There was snow and slush on the ground which made for some cold and uncomfortable playing conditions but it was still loads of fun. Field is about 43 acres with one tower, two blockhouses, and a few other areas of cover that didn't get pictured. I'm the guy in the Fleck.

Heading out onto the field


Blockhouse (there was a small moat around it from the melting snow and rain)

Field shot of all the snow, ice, slush, puddles, and mud. One of the blockhouses is in the back of the shot.


First time playing there and a site i'm going back to on the 10th. Oh that day there was like 20 or so guys playing and all of them were serious so no little kids running around with cheap wal-mart guns.

wasn't that on facebook in the group Airsoft?

CVAA group page?

https://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?v=photos&gid=2204756493&so=45 all through the photos

Ah. Neat, didn't know anyone else posted pics on FB except for the guy who took them. So yeah those are some of the other pictures from the day.

haha nice pics coulda use more snow cam, btw why is that guy wearing a read shirt does he want to get shot? those towers don't look to sturdy either

Looks sturdy to me. A bit rough around the edges maybe, but if you look at the load-bearing structure, it looks sound, provided it has adequate foundations under those posts.

Sturdiness, foundations, and general structural safety are sooo cliche and boring though. Nothing like falling from a treestand to make your day exciting Looks like a great facility. That one shot really shows how well those cammies blend.

He doesn't care and what's crazy is he does a good job playing. He's the kind of of guy who volunteers for anything and can usually pull off the crazy tasks we give him. Oh and i never got up in the tower but it's pretty sturdy from what i saw.

Yeah it's a great place, the people our serious about airsoft, no kids, no wal-mart guns, sweet field setup, and best of all it's all free.

What more can a guy ask for. Even our "mil-sim" fields have so many problems and end up being way overpriced. I guess the good ol' backwoods game with buddies on secluded land is the best way to go. California needs to step up their game a bit.

Yeah they do... ;(

Those pictures are pretty sweet, I'd like to play somewhere like that; much different than a brush and weed covered desert that's 75 degrees all day.. still fun though

I think 75 is a great temperature for airsoft.....but i geuss im used to it.

I wish it could 75 here now and not hovering around the 20's and 30's.

Well yeah it's a good temperature but what I meant was I would like to play in a different climate.

It would be foreign.....If you live in an area where youve never had snow and aren't around it a whole lot then it would suck cause your body prolly woudlnt be used to the cold.

I live a cold area during the winter and i still hate it.

@Insane Mercc
For the past 2 weeks I was in Scotland where it was 20 degrees and snowing every day. I was warmer than the people that lived there, and I was wearing less. I would have loved to play airsoft there but we couldn't get out of town because of the weather risks.

Here's three more good shots from another guy that were just posted.

Last game of the day with our support DMR firing on the tower.


Another one. That DMR was insanely nice. Base gun was a System M16A3 and shot 500fps with pinpoint accuracy using .28's. Gun had severl hundred dollars worth of upgrades on it and the guy was talking about getting a thermal scope for it!


And then me earlier in the day without my kevlar.



Wish we had someone with a camera out today, there was still snow on the ground and it was much colder which made everything turn to ice it seemed. Everyone was slipping and tripping over the ice it was comical. I slipped one game on a patch of ice trying to get the last guy out and fell right on my back cracking my head right on the ice. Had my k-pot on all day today so no injury resulted from that spill, sure was funny though.

Very cool, i love using cover made by a fallen tree's "crater"/roots.
