The Shasta Snow Trip (SST) is unlike any other vintage vehicle event. Open exclusively to pre-1968 Volkswagen Microbuses, this outlaw winter romp is the stuff of legend among VW junkies. The idea is simple: make it from the bottom of the Mendocino National Forest to the city of Mount Shasta, California, over some of Northern California's gnarliest dirt roads, in less than two days. This is no mellow cruise through hippie country. Tackling roughly 500 miles in a vintage tin can requires skill, preparedness, and a pinch of insanity.
