  • Table 20 Great American Rail-Trail Statistics in Wyoming
    Wyoming ROUTE Wyoming has the potential to be an incredible section of the Great American Rail-Trail. Its landscapes are unique in the United States, and Wyoming is already known for its outdoor recreation assets. Because of Wyoming’s topography, any route through Wyoming will require sizable grade increases at several locations. Local options including shuttle services could be explored to accommodate trail users who are unable to traverse these grade increases. Currently, there are not significant miles of multiuse trail that could be used to route a trail across Wyoming. However, with the statewide commitment to the project and the exceptional landscapes across the state, the Great American Rail-Trail is a viable project to help Wyoming with its outdoor recreation and tourism economy. RTC found and reviewed 20 plans in Wyoming to better understand the state’s trail priorities. A full list of these plans can be found in Appendix A.

Juanita Ketcham seems to be the heartbeat. Three events marked their calendars this past summer. June 17th they held Trail Days, featuring a cruise on the Trail into three counties. A popular event was the Manifold Cooking Contest wherein participants wrapped food in aluminum foil, revved up their engines and turned them into cooking surfaces. That evening a group called the Comedy Deli appeared at the American Legion for the benefit of the Yellowstone Trail Fest, coming in August. Then in July new Yellowstone Trail road signs went up, courtesy of Nipsco’s Improvement Grant. Their annual Yellowstone Trail Fest occupied August 19-20 this year which looked like as much fun as the June 10th event. Repurposing metal parts from automobiles to sculpture drew triple the contestants over last year, and the Indiana Historical Society’s History on Wheels interactive automotive display was also a big hit. Food, fun, music, beautiful weather and the Yellowstone Trail booth! *Bill Dirnberger, energetic leader of the Minnesota Region of the Antique Automobile Club of America (AACA), reported on the old car run on the Yellowstone Trail this summer. The run across a large part of Southern Minnesota included views of Michael Dowling’s automobile business in Olivia; Dowling was president of the YTA in 1917.

    FALL NUMBER 2016 36 Vintage Maps and Guides for the Yellowstone Trail By Dave Habura, YTA Board Member and Northwest Correspondent, photos by author Over the years I have collected several hundred maps and travel guides, and have looked to see where our Trail is cited by name in a guide or on a map. The original Yellowstone Trail Association did not publish a guide showing the Trail in detail. In fact when we try today to determine the exact route of the Trail in some parts of the country, the experts have to rely on a variety of resources from a hundred years ago. I am not an expert! But over the years I have collected a variety of resources that I enjoy using. I want to share some of them here and give a very short elaboration on where you might find many like them. Let’s start with Rand McNally Auto Trail maps, or perhaps Clason’s Maps. Both identify the route of the Trail by name, either on the map, or by number and trail blaze. Rand McNally also attempted to show the road surface with little hash marks on one side or both sides of a road. Both are available on sites like eBay, and both are in single sheets and atlases. You will quickly discover that small scale maps like Rand McNally and Clason’s are Clason’s Map Co. Example great as a starting point, but they don’t give Rand McNally Map Example you much detail. For detail you will want to turn to publications that provided turn by turn descriptions or more detailed strip maps.

    1917 Oakland raises $7,000+ with Trail Tour - Part 1 By John Gunnell, Iola, WI Photos by author The Yellowstone Trail, which runs through 409 miles in Wisconsin, was recently used to help celebrate 100 years of Lions Clubs. Automotive author John Gunnell and Manawa Lions Club Member and mechanic Dave Sarna, drove the Wisconsin section of the historic trail eastward from Hudson to Waupaca and from there southward to Kenosha. The Oct. 9-14 trip, in Gunnell’s 1917 Oakland car, to date has raised over $7,000 for the Wisconsin Lions camp for blind and disabled kids in Rosholt. Gunnell purchased the 1917 Oakland car as one of his dream cars in 2015, after buying a building in Waupaca that was an Oakland dealership and a Yellowstone Garage. Sarna is a former automotive technology instructor at Fox Valley Technical College, a mechanic and friend. The two decided to tie the 100-year-old car with the 100-year anniversary of Lions Clubs International by driving the Yellowstone Trail through Wisconsin. The journey started at the Hudson Arch in Lakefront Park at 9 a.m. on Oakland at Yellowstone Garage in Waupaca Monday, Oct. 9. Gunnell and Sarna traveled to Menominee, Eau Claire, Chippewa Falls, Cadott, Stanley, Abbotsford, Marshfield, Plover, Waupaca, Oshkosh, North Fond du Lac, Hartford, Hales Corners and Kenosha. The finish line was at Gateway Classics in Kenosha the afternoon of Oct. 14. Just prior to the trip Sarna and Gunnell overhauled the car’s rod bearings and installed a clutch. Two East Coast men, Wayne Koffel of Pennsylvania and Andy Wise (www.wiseandysgarage.com) specialize in Oakland parts and repairs and supplied parts by overnight mail to keep the car going.

    YTA Director attends the LHA Conference Earlier this year, the Lincoln Highway Association (LHA) invited our Executive Director, Mark Mowbray, to attend their 2018 National Conference. The Conference was held June 20-24 in Iselin, New Jersey. Mark was able to attend this event with the purpose of exploring ways for the LHA and our Association to share information and cross-promote our historic routes. Mark was able to meet a number of the attendees individually and participate in some tours of the area. He also had Mark Mowbray at LHA conference a display table of Yellowstone Trail information and was set up to show our 24-minute video in a “book room” set aside for displays of various visitors and vendors. Scheduling conflicts all three nights did not allow much time for the attendees to visit with Mark and view the video, but at least some of those attendees learned of our LHA Conference attendees at Hudson City New Jersey Trail and were given brochures, stickers, and contact information. Next year, the LHA Conference will be held in Rock Springs, Wyoming and we are hoping to again have a presence there and hope to further inform LHA members there of the history and mission of the Yellowstone Trail Association and to learn more about their historic road. YTA Minnesota Chapter is being formed By Alice Ridge, Arrow Editor Emerita We are happy to announce that the YTA is forming a Minnesota state chapter: The Yellowstone Trail Association–Minnesota Chapter. Members of the YTA who live in Minnesota are now also members of that Chapter.

  • County, Local Community Continue Their Efforts to Preserve Red Brick Road
    COUNTY, LOCAL COMMUNITY CONTINUE THEIR EFFORTS TO PRESERVE RED BRICK ROAD By Samantha Pak, Redmond Reporter, Redmond, Washington [email protected] Photos courtesy of King County, WA Dept. of Transportation and Mark Mowbray In 1913, a 1.3-mile stretch of road in unincorporated King County just outside of Redmond, Washington was paved with red bricks and the Red Brick Road was born. One hundred years later, that road still exists, and King County officials, along with the local community, have taken steps to ensure that it stays that way for a long time. Recently, King County crews built a turnout with an informational kiosk for visitors to learn more about the Red Brick Road’s history. The road — also known as 196th Avenue Northeast — runs north-south from Northeast Union Hill Road to State Route 202 and the kiosk is located along the north end. In addition to educating passersby about the century-old road, the kiosk was constructed using salvaged bricks that were removed when a roundabout was installed where the road intersects with Northeast Union Hill Road. Tom Minichillo, archeologist and cultural resource coordinator for the King County Road Services division, said when they built the roundabout, they needed to get permission to remove the bricks from two entities: the King County Landmarks Commission and the National Historical Preservation Act. He said in order to be able to remove the bricks; both entities required some sort of mitigation and saw a turnout with an informational kiosk as an appropriate use of the bricks. Tanya Rusak, who has lived on Red Brick Road for five years, said the residents along the road are very protective and passionate about the historical landmark.
