Registration for this tour opens on June 1st at 8:00 AM! Read everything listed on MotorsportReg (MSR) carefully or you will be uninformed and lost!!
It's back!! The third running of the Maryhill Loops Road, Maryhill Museum of Art, Stonehenge replica, Maryhill Winery and potentially the newly renovated Goldendale Observatory! Quite a weekend to be sure!! Come join your fellow PNWR members in this event showcasing the Maryhill Loops Road and Art Museum. Maryhill Museum of Art founder Sam Hill was one of the Northwest’s first and most vocal advocates for modern roads. In 1998, a 3.6 mile section of the road was completely refurbished and received the Outstanding Project of Historical Significance Award from the American Public Works Association, Washington State Chapter. This section of road rises 850 feet at a 5% grade and is home to 25 turns, 8 of which are hairpins. We have rented this historic Maryhill Loops Road for our EXCLUSIVE USE-- that means NO ONE else will be on it!
