Sounds like you had a great trip.
Sad to see the bus looking worse year on year, not through natural ageing but mindless vandalism.
An unforgettable experience nonetheless.
All the best,
Nick

Re: Ron Lamothe documentary available on DVD?
I received a DVD copy within the last 3/4 months. My fourth copy! (one lost moving home, one scratched and one left at the bus) perhaps there has been a mix up.

Re: Ultimate freedom
Great post Steve, The story continues to intrigue and inspire me. I have many of my own questions about his journey (ill sit and wait for yours to be answered first!)

Re: A few details rarely, if ever, mentioned...
Great post Steve, and follow up GoNorth. What also must be said about the trip from the Tek to the bus is that if you want to do it in 4 hrs (which I think is quite impressive!) it is a constant hump. Also, depending on the time of year it is not always easy to pick the trail up the bus side of the ...

Great post Dave, what part of England are you from? would be interested to see more pictures from your trip if you have any.

Re: McCandless on California Gold with Huel Howser
I watched the whole 1992 episode and could not see the swimmer.
Perhaps you could expand your info or post a link.
It would be an amazing find as no footage of Chris is available.
Best,
Nick
