High Country Bus Festival 2023 - VW Camping on the River
I attempted to make it to High Country Bus Festival in 2022 when my engine died, and I spent a long trying to get it fixed. Eventually I found a shop in St. Louis that could rebuild it, and one year later I am back with a brand new engine. It's only fitting then that my first trip after a long year without the bus was to High Country Bus Festival in 2023!
I broke the trip up into two legs. First, I avoided the interstate and took Highway 411 up to Sevierville, TN where I stopped at the world's largest Buc-ee's. After that, I traveled up into Virginia and then down into North Carolina, where I ended up at Twin Rivers Campground in Crumpler, NC. The weather was outstanding despite a little rain in the evening. I counted well over 100 Volkswagen buses of all types: Split windows, bay windows, Vanagons, and Eurovans. Plus, there were tons of non-VW campers as well. On Saturday, we had a giant group float down the river.
Then on the way home on Sunday, I passed through Lansing, NC for pizza at Pie on the Mountain before finally heading home. I hope you enjoy my video recap of this trip. Please follow me on social media (links below) for more updates and trips and bus content!

Back in the 90s a local VW independent repair shop was tossing away into the trash, stacks of these training filmstrips..They are in blue boxes about 14 inches square, 1.5 inches thick..Record and filmstrip inside..with some small books that go with the subject matter.. I must have about 50 of these..And they were being tossed in the trash..Glad I rescued them
I Love these old VW training videos. They are very detailed
These videos are fantastic! Thanks for uploading them!

I just did this today, on my ‘76 Westy.
Great editing. Hope to See ya at Bugapalooza
you guys give me more confidence to take mine offroad!
You can do it!
From experience, that crossing in the dark is pushing the maximum speed you want when you go into deep water. Maybe 35 years ago I pushed-in the front of my Mom's 1968 Bus when I went a little faster into water about that deep.
Love those portal axles!!!!
Yep… wish I was there too!
Fantastic video, in every way.
And here I am just waiting for the tire to blow.
Living the dream! Wonderful scenery!!
Awesome.i would love to own a vw bus.
I don't know what city it is
I know the movie Wrong Turn when I see it.
👍👍👍

This channel has made me more confident with my vans performance.
