Summary: In this chapter Mccandless Odyssey for Liard River Hot Springs came to a pause once he decided to soak in the soothing waters. Attempting to catch a ride he has no luck for about two days. Still impatiently in the river Mccandles meets a trucker delivering a motorhome heading towards the same location as mccandless. Stuckey reconsidering taking McCandless north knowing his company has a strict rule of hitchhikers decides to take McCandless halfway. Throughout the ride Stuckey decides to take McCandles the whole way. Arriving in Fairbanks Mccandles studies a book on plants to eat and ends up purchasing a gun in a parking lot. Back on the road we see that Mccandles gets a ride from our old friend Jim Gallien. Into the bush we learn that Mccandles had a difficult Killing Game. Luckily by Mid-may the snow started to go down allowing Mccandles to rely on lingonberries. Struggling Mccandles spent four months not encountering a single soul. Finally killing a moose Mccandles spent days Toiling the moose. Unfortunately the meat ended up spoiling. Deciding and preparing to go home starting a twenty mile hike. Mccandles comes across a strong enough river to knock him off his feet. Forcing Mccandles to have to walk back to the bus.

Analysis: In this story it shows how Mccandles is a cool guy. Even the trucker decided to let him stick around knowing his company policy. He even tried looking for him after his delivery got delayed. Other than that Mccandles should have bought a sniper rifle. Im no hunter but Ive killed bunnies with a sniper rifle. Im also a Veteran in Black Ops 2. All Jokes aside it sucks how Mccandles grand prize animal had to spoil. Also how Mccandles tried returning but couldn´t make it due to the weather.

Analysis:  Like I said this man is crazy how can you spend days in a tent knowing the weather outside can kill you. Just to pass time you smoke a blunt. This man literally almost lit the only tent that is keeping him warm from the weather. It happens though we all do our thing that leads to mistakes. Hope this mans father gets well though. I know how it is having family members with drug problems.

Analysis: This man has balls to climb a mountain like that. I have went through crazy events but this is something I  wouldn´t do. I would consider this climb suicide. Reading how near death this man was close to just to accomplish something from his father is crazy.

Christopher claims that he will be fine from Gallien concerns and he will live off the land. Although Gallien still concerned he realized that Alex boots aren't well insulated(P.5) nor waterproof. His rifle is only a 22. Caliber(P.5) that is no match for big animals. Still concerned Gallien drops Alex off on a stampede trail. Gallien gifts Alex food and a pair of working boots along with a phone number. Driving off Gallien sees state troopers, Considering telling them about Alex. Gallien decides that Alex will be fine and will end up coming back.

Analysis: Chris adventure is pretty inspiring this man shows that anything can be done with a risk. Although I would have been more prepared. Which shows that Chris is way more confident in his work. Entering the woods with very little supplies is very risky. I would have suggested Chris not to take.

My Version of into the wild would be Sportfishing with my dad. Although it is my second time going It was like learning all over again. Fishing is not all about catching the biggest fish. We enjoy being away from everything no service and not many people. Just peace and quiet. It is very relaxing watching the ocean and seeing dolphins come by once in while. It does get very intense once you catch fish fighting it to come up from the ocean. In the photo are one of the biggest fish we caught that day.
