I doubt he did, otherwise why hasn't this been mentioned anywhere else on the web?

He was off exploring for about three weeks before returning to the bus. Does anyone know if pictures from that period were released in the new book? I'm curious if he was able to find the old Stampede road or if he just traveled cross country. ... There are indeed some photos of that part of the jo...

i think your lying to yourself Awesome! I’m fascinated by your visionary skills! I know this might be a bit off topic here, but do you think you could find the time to read some of my posts and tele-psychoanalyze me as well, please? I’ve been feeling like having some unresolved issues for quite a w...
