Photos from our Summer 2001 Expedition:
Retaking North America -- Pour la France!
(August 3-6, 2001)
featuring photos by Russ Waters and Jay Helms.
A different kind of expedition for 2001: Airlifted to the far reaches of Northern
California, Les Pétomanes secure a foothold at Shasta Lake for four days of
hiking, water sports, recreation, great food ... and the Greater Glory of la France!

Our secret encampment is on the Squaw Creek Arm of the lake, strategically
located beneath the Bully Hill Mine.

Some slavish sticklers for historical accuracy
have insisted on seeing the original unedited version.
