Jimbo and Ned take the boys camping on Mr. Evanston.
It rumbles to life and the group has to scramble back to town. Cartman
tells the boys of Scuzzlebutt, which frightens them at first, but they
dismiss the tale after some odd descriptions of the monster. Scuzzlebutt
shows up looking as strange as described and saves the group while the
town tries to determine how best to get the group off the mountain. |

| Trivia |
- This is the first appearance of Jimbo and his hunting buddy Ned.
- The geologist (whom we now know as Randy Marsh) is based on Trey
Parker's father, Randy, who is also a geologist. At this
point we don't know that he is Stan's father, we only find that out
later in the episode An Elephant Makes Love to a Pig.
- "It's coming right for us!" references an incident in Colorado in which
a man shot three Rocky Mountain black bears (a protected species) down
from a tree. His excuse: They were coming right for us!
- Happy Tarts are also mentioned in another Trey Parker work, Orgazmo.
- In the Spanish dub, Scuzzlebutt's leg is replaced with Ricky Martin instead of Patrick Duffy; in the Hungarian version it is replaced with Tom Cruise.
- Cartman pretends he's in Vietnam when he's given a gun and claims to have flashbacks. However, in The Mexican Starring Frog of Southern Sri Lanka, he knows nothing about Vietnam.
- Randy Marsh is missing eyebrows for (almost) the entire episode. They appear near the end.
- In this episode, the townspeople are shown a volcano safety film which is a parody of Duck and Cover
- When Uncle Jimbo sees the deer, he says, "looks like a 46-gauge" he is then seen with a rocket launcher. The shotgun gauge system works such that smaller numbers describe larger barrels, so a 46-gauge would actually be very small.
