The first 4 photos are from September 11th. The first pic shows rally
driver, sponsor, and chronicler Dave Berghold, of The Last Windup in
Bozeman, along with co-driver Paul Manney. Photos 2, 3 and 4 show some
of the cars entered, taken at the Pollard Hotel.
Day One "Well the start day of the rally is complete and we had a little bit of
everything in terms of weather. Leaving Red Lodge at about 9: am the
skies were partly cloudy and it was a little cool. The sound of Scottish
bagpipe and the roar of some of the cars was an interesting
juxtaposition. As we approached the Chief Joseph Highway, the weather
began to get a bit worse. We were aware of a small section of road that
was closed, but we were not necessarily prepared for the snow and
rain. Compounding that with a dirt road, the mud made for quite a
scene. Pulling into Yellowstone National Park, things seemed to get a
little better, but it was not until we were out of the park that the
skies cleared." Dave Berghold
Day Two "We traveled from Gallatin Gateway
Montana (just west of Bozeman) having stayed at the Gallatin Gateway
Inn. Weather today was significantly better, no rain or snow. The cars
made their way through Ennis Montana and then over to the historic town
of Virginia City where the folks had a nice stop at the visitors center
for a refresher cup of coffee and Danishes. We wound our way through some wonderful roads to have a buffet lunch at
the Jackson Hotel in Jackson MT. Leaving there, we were on our way to
Deer Lodge for a stop at the Automobile Museum. Then off to our resting
place for the evening in Helena MT at The Great Northern
Hotel." Dave Berghold
