Deer Creek Road is the road to the range in Missoula, Montana. There are several other attractions located along and beside this road—most notably a golf course and the Clark Fork River. During the summer months, there is more traffic on the road, including golfers (both walking and driving golf carts), swimmers, and teens diving off the bridge. Since we will be adding to the traffic load on this road for several days, everyone must use extreme caution when traveling to and from the range. This means obeying the posted speed limits and watching for people crossing the road. Anyone observed driving recklessly on this road will be asked to leave the range.
Parking at the range will be a little tight, so if possible, please share a ride from the hotel with a couple of your buddies. We’re asking the staff to do the same thing, to reduce the number of cars we will be putting on the range. We’ll have people directing parking, so please drive slowly and pay attention to their directions. We can’t allow vehicular traffic from stage to stage, but you will be allowed to drive from the East end of the range to the West end, to access the stages there. This means that there will be some traffic on the range roads at all times, so drive slowly and cautiously, as there will be competitors walking in the same area simultaneously, as well as the usual staff vehicles. Sharing a ride here will also help with parking.
Catering and vendors will be in the same general area along with some parking. This should help keep everything centralized and allow you access to the vendor area at break and lunch times. It also means that there will be increased pedestrian traffic around the parking area, so please be careful.
