Re: McCandless and Treadwell thoughts ...

He wrote a column about how he feels Penn and Krakauer should pool funds and pay for the removal of the bus. In it he embedded my friend Jeremy Egger's youtube video of me crossing the river after saying " Here are two videos on YouTube that shows people crossing the river and not recognizing t...

Re: Brent Anyone?

I'm not Brent either... but... having been to the bus, would you be interested in getting your name on the list of folks who have been there at pathfinderalaska.com/stampedetrail/thelist.php ? Several of us here on this forum are there and we'd love to add you too if you want. Just email me a photo ...

Re: McCandless and Treadwell thoughts ...

I really enjoyed talking to Xing when I got ahold of him for the article on my page. I think the overreaction, and the 'rescue' though, are just evidence of the general opinion a lot of Alaskans hold about anyone trying to make the Trek, and about McCandless himself. They just think we're all misinf...

Re: Parts were stolen from the bus and put on Ebay...

1) I would certainly be up for a trip out there to patch up the bus. I wouldn't be able to go until either this coming winter, or summer of 2012 either though. 2) When I said Dermot Cole was swell I meant it with a lot of sarcasm. He wrote an editorial once, where he used one of my friend's videos f...

Re: The bus is getting pulled

I think just the sheer amount of public interest in it should be enough, rather than it's particular significance to the McCandless story. I think the same should be done with Bomber Glacier and other 'wrecks' of similar importance in the state though too. Hell, even the people who want it out of th...

Re: Parts were stolen from the bus and put on Ebay...

"A 25-year-old entrepreneur from the Interior sold an instrument panel from the dashboard of the bus in which Christopher McCandless died for $177.50. If a useless piece of junk can fetch that kind of cash on eBay, as it did late last month, just think of what the entire bus might be worth. The...
