Yes, right on the border of Oregon. South of Yakima. Near Goldendale. Only 30 miles from Oregon Raceway Park which hosted a track day the day after the Hill Climb. ORP is the best track I've ever driven and the day was limited to 60 cars. Registration for ORP was only $125 and included an amazing lunch. More details from ORP coming soon.

The Hill Climb was $135 for the two days. It's run like an auto-x where you work one session and race one session each day although working consists of sitting in a chair on the hill and watching the race. No cones to chase but a few rocks to sweep when someone drops a wheel off. Primarily you are there in case of an accident or fire. Classing is also SCCA auto-x based plus a few open classes if you don't fit well in the standard classes. There are a few other organizations that run hill climbs or just drives at Maryhill. As usual the video doesn't do it justice. The entire hill is a 5% grade with lots of blind corners and big drop offs and it's in really nice condition.

Well it sounds like fun and the price is right! Ive also yet to see ORP and would like to make my way there one of these days. Maybe after I hit my plateau with the car at the Ridge?

I've never participating in any auto X, simply because it never interested me like running a road course, so not too familiar with how the classing works, a bit of a learning curve for me there. I probably mostly fit into a mild mod/street class but not sure, my tire widths or aero might throw me out of that one.
