Trip to bus in Summer 2019

[S.J.A.]

Hello there!
I'm not sure if this forum is still being frequented by people who are interested in hiking to the bus (the real non-movie one out by the Stampede Trail).
So if anybody's reading this, here's me and my plan, and I'd be grateful for any help or advice anybody's willing to give (except for "Don't go", 'cause I will, one way or another).

I am originally from Austria (middle Europe, NOT the southern isle with the big red rock and the kangoroos), but I'll be in BC, Canada, Vancouver area from late June to beginning of September this year, and I'm planning on catching a ride up to the Yukon and eventually to Fairbanks or the general area some time in July or the first half of August. The ultimate goal is, of course, to hike the Stampede Trail and go see the Magic Bus.
I know for a fact that I can go the distance, deal with bugs and mud and wildlife and a few nights out sleeping rough. My drive and motivation exceed my capacity to put thoughts and feelings into words. I might be reckless, but I'm not stupid enough to think that this should be done by myself.

So my question is, is anybody planning on doing the hike this summer? If so, please get in touch, either on here or just e-mail me under
jrcho14@gmx.net

I'm looking forward to hearing from you guys!
All the best,
Samuel

Hi! I saw your post about how you are planning to visit the magic bus. Unfortunately, I have no plans on visiting soon, but thought I could respond anyway since I also really would love to go one day. I definitely think it's a smart idea to bring other people on your journey, as you mentioned. I hope your trip goes well and you find what you are looking for. I hope you are able to feel the magic that Chris felt there and embrace the wild and keep it with you forever. All the views, all the sounds, all the smells, I hope it gives you a feeling that you've never felt before and you remember it for the rest of your life. I am certain your long trip to the bus will be worth it in the end. Please share photos on here so we can all see ! (if thats possible) God bless and safe travels!
