Here's a bump for goatboy's ride.
Ran into this bus just outside of strawberry at Chuck's cabin.

Man I thought it was the Skinnermobile!
Todd was the best--I remember him giving me a can of brake fluid for my leaking bug from that very same rig

Isa doing home work. My syncro had the most agressive 4X4 traxtion of any rig I have ever owned. better than mu F10 and k20 with chains. I could creep up icy hills no problem.

Family transportation included a gas guzzler and a gas miser.
Dad always wondered about gas mileage and kept track, but it was erratic on the bug because we'd disconnect the odometer when we borrowed it.
Note the tail end of another bug
and the fact we are able to travel in both directions on Southside Drive!
Ten years after this I got to climb the Salathe.

Back in the Space Race the saying was that "Our German scientists are better than their German scientists."

A great thing about the bugs was the fact that several people could pick one up and move it over to create an additional parking space hopefully right near the lodge at Mammoth, but watchout for those winds on 395.
Speaking of Mammoth
There is an interactive map here where you can click on various areas of the mountain to see trails and info.

These two feisty ladies Marge and Harriet from Salt Lake City stand at the beginning of the runway to Mazatlán International Airport shooting jets as they come in to land. "There's too many dang big game fishermen coming in to town depleting our already dangerously depleted stocks of Marlin and other fish-type things."
The local police says the 'lovely ladies' [sic] will never down a modern jet with those peashooters so we leave them be to take pot shots. The chief of police continued "However if we see them using a a rocket propelled grenade we may have to do something about it. But at the moment we let them have their fun."
When I accused the nasty little man of secretly having a 'women with gun' fetish he drew out his oily sidearm and asked me to hold it while grinning lasciviously. He saw the back of my hand across his smiling chops I can tell you but not before demanding I give him 500 pesos for the pleasure.

Bugorama 2014 is being held at Sacramento Raceway Park on Hwy.16 at Excelsior Road tomorrow ,May 25th. There are thousands of VW's of almost every year & model there. The commercial vendors & the flea market sellers have enough on sale to assemble a new- old car in the parking lot.A couple of years ago I met a guy form Germany who told me he fills several cargo containers with used parts to ship home every annual visit. Check it out.
