Architecture

"The Barn on Bootlegger Trail"  

Notes from the Artist

This wonder of agricultural architecture is located about 40 miles due north of Great Falls on a dirt road known as the Bootlegger Trail. It was such an appropriate name as it was the main north trail into Great Falls during the years of alcohol prohibition.

Located at "the Knees", the homestead is the home of the Rossmillers who have farmed there for generations.  Unfortunately, this wonderful round bar is no longer standing, as it is currently caving inward.  This is the fate of many structures, for once the roof has collapsed, the rest soon follows.
