A crazy thing there...The Blu-Ray version has both the American and European version of the movie on it. I won't spoil it for you by telling you the difference.    :grinno:

Cool, i'll watch them back to back  :icon16:

EdCo the mad Chek pointed out the area he thinks is where the naked chick bit was filmed. Just to the west of Green River. He thinks the current highway runs right over where the shack was that the hippy and girl were "living". There is the faint remains of a road on the right that the new highway crosses over and he thinks that is the road past the shack in the film.

I put some more photos up on Facebook but have not added any notes yet.
