It’ll be out of fuel before then.

Pops has a 2007 F-250 without AC. No big deal 99% of the time. The other 1%? It’s rough, man.

It was originally an access trail for an early 1900s antimony mine (Stampede mine) out at Kantishna, which sits within what is now Denali National Park. The bus was brought in during an effort in 1961 to re-clear and widen the trail to move more equipment in from Lignite Creek, which was just north of Healy.

It was partially driven and partially pulled behind a bulldozer (after it busted the drive axle) to serve as rough housing for some of the people working on cutting an access trail to a mine. The land in that area is a mix of gravel and forested dirt, so it’s actually not as crazy as it may first sound. The Stampede…

Ewe wood think sew.

I understand and can appreciate why UAF wanted to take the bus for its museum, but my personal opinion is that it should have been fully crushed and scrapped. It shifted from a remote curiosity to a beacon for stupidity a long time ago, endangering not only misguided tourists, but also the people sent out to rescue or…

I don’t think that’s necessary in this case.
