MINIsOnTop 2009 Auto Road

Posted on by Ian C.

I think this might have been the best drive up the Mount Washington Auto Road – the weather stayed dry but occasional fog rolled through to make things interesting; some clear road to enjoy the drive up, and when I met other slower MINIs I just stopped, and took pictures for a few minutes!
On top, we had clouds, but they cleared for a while to show us both the sun and a rainbow – a great day 🙂

 

Driving up:

Ducks On Top:

 

And a chance of a sunset:

 

 

MINI at the end of the rainbow, and MINI and destination (the base of the auto road in the distance!):

 

The clouds return, and it’s time to descend:

Our only seriously wet weather occurred this afternoon as we were setting up in the tent at the base of Mount Washington – but it cleared before it caused any real trouble, and we had a great fun time, as always – and this year’s new Pulled Pork was excellent 🙂

Door prizes in boots (thanks, Peter, for camera-work!)

 

Our Golden MC under the tent (wonderful work, Michael!), and prize presentations including to Susan, winner of the Herb Chambers MINI Cooper lease, presented by Mark Ravin …

 

MINIs ready to head up the mountain, or MINIs at the end of the rainbow!
