Reading Chris's story is heartbreaking and amazing at the same time. Chris has one thing in mind to travel to Alaska and discover the wild he wanted to face. He had wealthy parents who didn't really give Chris and his Sister enough attention. But he really loved his sister they would get along really well and had a great relationship together.

Couple things I disliked about Chris was he never told his parents and his close sister about running away from home and travleing to Alaska. And the time when Chris was hunting towards the end of the story, Chris could have went to the cabin to   take some supplies with him inorder to survive in the wild. And Chris has shut down many people he talked to through his way to Alaska, which made me abset that he rejected them.

But there is also many things I loved about him which had faced his challeng and had setted his goal without distraction in front of him. I also love that he took some advice from people he meet and rembered to things and did them out in the wild. I like they way he thinks about the government trying to control everybody and he does not put himself apart of that situation.

Hiking and Spending Time With Family & Friends

# data[].attributes.body
Ever since I was a young kid, my parents would always take me to peters canyon right after church and I would feel exhausted but I would also enjoy the nature around me and the time spent with my parents. But this picture above shows me and my parents when we hiked mount baldy, it was the worst and the best experience because the hike took a whole day to complete but an amazing feeling right after accomplishing this mountain.

My goal is to hike more mountains all around the orange county to experience different trials. The way I could make that happen is to encourage my parents and other friends they have to join us so that way we could hike mountains we never did. I also want to encourage people to go out to the mountains and walk them to understand the feeling and excitement of keeping your body moving and healthy.

Summary: Once Chris had given up on hunting for animals like squirrels p.1 he started to eat potato seeds p.4 but he wasn't sure if there were okay for his health.  He was starving and had no choice but to eat the seeds that had L-canavanine p.9. He was found dead inside his bus and people weren't sure if he died of starvation p.1 or if any toxic foods positioned him. Chris had an amazing dream for himself and he continued to find information from different other people's advice. And he took that opportunity to have fun in the wild to himself.

Analysis: Jon Krakauer definitely spent so much time investigating Chris's death and was concerned about how he died. I could imagine that Jon could take Chris's story and prevent the situations that he is going to face throughout his trip.

Summary: After the Hunters had left the bus waiting for Chris to come back, Chris had eventually traveled back to his shelter and he was weak starving, and failed his multiple attempts at hunting. Chris had some other foods that were dangerous to his health because he didn't have enough fat to fight off the toxins (pg. 193) and poisoning (pg. 191) plants. He had made his decision to not go back and hunt and wrote about his amazing fun experience with nature and Alaska hiking several times. He also wrote saying: "I HAVE HAD A HAPPY LIFE AND THANK THE LORD.  GOODBYE AND MAY GOD BLESS ALL" (p. 199) he was found dead after a few weeks from the six people.

Analysis: I feel upset that Chris couldn't make it without food but I'm also glad that he's made his dreams come true to discover Alaska and to have fun out in the wild. He also appreciates life what it haves to give him and understand the feeling of a wildlife.

Summary: Jon Krakauer had discovered Chris's body by tracking down his footsteps and with some other hunters. Chris had could have used the map (pg.173) that was given out but he decided not to take one to walk back to the bus. But once Chris came back after leaving the bus he had to cross the river (pg.173) but he couldn't make it across from the high level of water rise. When before Chris was crossing the river and having trouble the hunters had a feeling to wait nearby his bus to see if he would ever come back.

Analysis: My thought to Chris is why wouldn't he take more supplies just in case of any trouble or something important happens. I'm sure that if he were to take the map and some supplies he would have made it out with more food and contain more fat.

Summary: Going back Chris McCandless story he starts hitchhiking to Canada and once he arrives there he meets this guy named Gaylord Stuckey (pg.158) who give a RV from Indiana to Fairbanks. After staying over there for awhile he begins to find tools and other wildlife needs for hunting animals he wrote a letter of how many animals he killed each day but his biggest surpsies to him was killing a moose (pg. 166) and he rememberd to cook the body in one whole from his friends who gave him some advice. After a few days his food turns out to fail there were bugs and rotting away from backteria so he feed it to the wolves. Now he is worried about himself if he will ever eat to and tries to go back to the bus.

Analysis: I realized how far he made his goals and wild adventures but he also could have decided to use the maps to fined shelter. And I believe that if were to fallow the map he would of had been in a much better place to pick up some supplies to cook his meal.

Summary: Once Krakauer rocked climed the devils thumb he failed his atempt and goes back to the very bottom to rest. He decides to smoke for his stress and catches his tent on fire and all around him the tent to open apart and fastly getting cold becasue of what he did. Jon rembers of his complicated (p.147) past thing that happened with his Father and thats what makes him want to move his depression to the side and remake the atempt of rockclimbing the devils thumb and he take that motivation inside his head and continues to rockclimb soon he finialy accomlished his goal and tries to tell people who he knows about what he did and many people were not surprised or beleived him. Once he got older his hurbis (p.155) when he was younger pushed him self way too much and relizsed what he did as a young kid like Chris McCandless.

Analysis: If Chris were to have the same motivation as Chris I think he would of had tried to make it out alive for his parents and comeback with a great story and telling everyone what he had accomplished.

# data[].attributes.body
Summary: Jon Krakauer had a similar goal to Chris McCandless but Jon wanted to rock climb a mountain called the Devils' thumb covered with snow and many glaciers (pg.138) that would break down but there were also other things that he had to worry about like the weather, snow, rocks falling, and etc. That was Jons obsession (pg. 134) and his Father always had hated his son and did lots of drugs that Jon couldn't help him for. Jon realizes that he is pushing himself away too far with his dreams because he didn't care to die on that mountain he just wanted to accomplish his goal.

Analysis: Jon is trying to prove that Chris is not the only one to chase the crazy dreams that others won't believe. But both had similar situations with parents like both Fathers had something to do with part of their lives and treated them bad or did not show them enough love.

Summary: This chapter shows when Carine McCandles receives Chris's remains and she is heartbroken because she has similarities (p.128) with her brother and is very close to each other. Chris had never told his sister when he's leaving for his trip to Alaska and Carine understood what his problem was because of his parents. Carine breaks down crying for many days from her lost (p.132) she eventually loses ten pounds because she felt depressed and she didn't feel herself again.

Analysis: It's hard to understand the situation between Chris and Carine but especially Carine because she was very close to her brother and had great times as little kids. The death of Chris makes Carine feel empty for days but she will always love him for anything he left from her.

Summary: After Chris's graduation from Woodson high school (p.117) he is disappointed with his parents because he finds out his father is spending time with his other family and realize that his mother was the side Chick and his Father's other side was his ex, Wifes. Chris was offered money from his father but he was not interested in money (p. 120).
Chris's parents wanted to surprise him with a new car but he was fine with what he had. He soon takes off on his road trip to leave his parents and until September 1992 his parents found out about his death and struggled with depression and questioned themselves about their lives.

Analysis: When Chris's Family had found out he was dead in Alaska they struggled with life a lot more. And I could picture the situation they had faced like his Father giving two Females pregnant and had two families, I just feel disgusted by this guy and disappointed from not keeping the right one to him self.

Summary: The Family of Chris McCandles was not that exciting when it starts from spending time together the parents would work on their business and make so much money but never took the time to have fun. Chris's Dad did not get along with his son because he was just like him. The kids were gifted (p.106) with having wealthy parents who work hard. But most of the time this family would argue and fight and it would be like wars inside the house. Chris didn't like the fact that his Dad was abusive to his Mother so he decided to leave his home for his own good.

Analysis: Having a wealthy family doesn't mean that it is a happy family but sometimes money could bring a smile. Just like Chris, he decided to leave and have fun with the beautiful nature all around him in Alaska. He wanted freedom and doesn't want to deal with our government's rules.

Summary: After Chris McCandless died from starvation a wild hunter found Chris inside the bus and reported his body to the Alaska state troopers and were struggling to find his information like his name his family and etc. The state troopers then had found who he was from Chris's best friend and reported it into the news all around and had taken a while from using the phone books back then when there wasn't much technology.

Analysis: Having to research a person from the 1930s was tough to investigate like the phone books that they used to contact people. Chris has proved to his family and friends that he will one day travel to Alaska and be happy there. That shows Chris how he takes action and sticks to it rather than others talking about their dreams and never completing them.

# data[].attributes.body
Summary: This chapter explains about a young with some similarities of Chris McCandless from growing up and choosing to stay away from the people and just living the beautiful life out in nature. And this man has always been unsatisfied (p. 91) with life as most people live it he says. He always wants to live more Intensely (p.91) and richly (p.91)

Analysis: Krakauer wants to tell Chris McCandless that he also has been through some tough times and hard decisions like moving on into the wildlife and forgetting people all around he knows. They are both trying to chase their dreams and have an adventurer. He gives off the story's about the same as Chris and wants him to understand the similarity from between them.

This was me and my Parents 2 years ago going hiking to Mount Baldy and with some other friends who also went. We planed this hike for an all-day thing and it turned out great we left home at 4 in the morning to eat something before heading to the mountains and it took about 9 hours of hiking up and back down. The elevation of the mountain was 4,193.
As a little kid my parents always took me places to hike and also small parks like peters canyon. We had usually done these activities right after church and hike or walked around neighborhoods.
