All of you planning a trip to the bus should be happy to hear that national Park rangers, Alaska State troopers and Healy search and rescue personnel now make regular safety patrols by snow machine and all terrain vehicles out to the bus. They are there to help you.... Oh yeah, and also to watch for illegal uses in the Park and on State land and fish and game violations like illegal hunting.
Rangers are also removing old hunters camps and other junk from alongside the trail.
Last Fall they cut up that old blue van and hauled it out with ATV's along with a bunch of trash. So that blue van is no longer an available shelter. Is the bus next?

Re: Rangers, Trooper and SAR at Bus
what blue van? where along the trail is that?!
I know there is a makeshift camp a few miles in as you walk alongside 'fish creek' (i think thats what it is called) but where was the blue van?!

Re: Rangers, Trooper and SAR at Bus
The blue van was abandoned there between the Savage and Tek in the 80's. It was south of the trail in that low stretch of trail just before the tek. It was an old hunting camp with a lot of trash but was far enough off the trail (about 100 feet) that you could walk by without seeing it...
The Rangers told me they hauled everthing out because after a certain number of years camps like that are considered "cultural sites" and it becomes problematic to just haul them out.
