Going North - Episode 12: Shocking news about Magic Bus 142 from Into The Wild

Thanks for sharing! Great shots of the bus interior! I still think they should build a "bridge" and then put the bus back in it's original location. The whole purpose and meaning behind the Chris McCandless story lies not only in the bus itself, but in the location where he survived in the wild for months as well. I don't understand why it is not being taken seriously as a historic landmark for future generations to come and visit.

I always thought I'd travel to that bus one day. I do appreciate "Going North" thank you for that historical documentary!

....look...as a camper, hiker, survivalist adventure seeker myself...I understand their intent...but let me tell you ~ This will not prevent seekers...from still going to that exact location...and setting up camp...this is almost certain...." one cannot remove history from its origin or birth place...the echo and memory...always remains "  Amen !

It's like the titanic I think they should have left it alone because after a certain point it becomes not only a historical site but a memorial.

I hitched all over Alaska, rode the freight train out of Denali back in 1988. When I read this book I realized that I had done the same search for myself as Chris had in the Alaskan wilderness. I canoed the Yukon river as well, it was the greatest thing that I ever did and it defined me for the rest of my life. I was 24 as well, no matter what they do to me they can never take this away from me. I went into the wild but by the grace of God I came back again.

Now is a perfect time to visit the area there, no more tourists

I am so glad that we were able to share that adventure with you guys as I know I never would have been able to go out there. Thanks for the update and happy journeys.

That bus was more like a shrine. You build a path to shrine, not remove the shrine. This place was in my bucket list....I feel so sad rn.

Such a good idea.. it’s a material object exactly what Chris didn’t like.. he wouldn’t even upset at all. People came first not a hunk of steel.

I fell in love with that book.

I just read this news a little while again and immediately thought of you and Justin and Going North about your trip there. I'm so glad you were able to make the trip.

Wow. I am all the more grateful for the beautiful film you made about your trip to Alaska, with that magical episode at The Bus. It was truly magical and whatever happens now, we have that. Thanks! 🙏🇳🇱

Thank you , I'm going to watch the whole adventure again now . Gone but always in your memory s . x

I’m so glad you two made the trek to Alaska and have this wonderful footage!

Always been a bucket lister for me. I guess not anymore. 😢😢😢. Thank you for the touching video.

Truly appreciate this update, and both your journey to document this experience of being on the bus and honoring Chris as many people have is very meaningful with the utmost sincerity. I am reading " The Wild Truth by" Carine Mc Candless, and learned of this video today, this afternoon, and while looking at family photos in the book, Chris is with peace, I sense this with this move of the bus is shocking to many, people go unprepared as nit fully knowing what they are getting into with the elements ,it is a wise decision for people to honor his safety in legacy in full agreement. Powerful and a true honor to see this!! Much gratitude!

Wow. This makes me want to cry. I just found your page now as I learned of the bus’s flight. Thanks for posting. Thanks for you homage to Chris. Just wow.

I just finished the series and it was fantastic! I laugjed and cried. What a wonderful blessing that you were able to see it when you did. Great job documenting your journey.

Thanks for give us the information with video bus of there, may u succes with ur yt channel!

For information. The bus location will probably be at Alaska's Fairbanks museum.
