He was shocked and couldn't picture that the kid wearing his boots and also had a long conversation with recently had just been found dead, but when he heard of it he also heard that no one new him or could find his identity except for Gallien. He told the state troopers that he gave him a ride but they didn't really pay attention because they have been hearing from a couple of people that they knew the hikers identity. Through the chapter there was a couple people who knew him and others didn't but a specific person was phoned about it and it was his half brother Sam McCandless. It never crossed his mind that it was Chris but when they started giving him brief descriptions on Chris, Sam just knew it was him. He didn't know a lot about his half brother but knew enough, so he went home and picked up Michele, his wife, and "drove out to Maryland" to tell his dad and Billie. He had no idea how to tell someone that their child was dead.

"At such a time you felt the need of committing yourself to something absolute--life or truth or beauty--of being ruled by it in place of the man-made rules that had been discarded." This is talking about how you shouldn't follow every or anything that is man made or told to you, but also committing yourself to a passion you have. Its about making your own executive decisions but also committing to the decisions you make and not letting critics or anyone tell you otherwise.

Alexander Supertramp's Manifesto means he is indefinitely free without any distraction that's time consuming and taking away from what he wants to do. It means that he has finally gotten away from everything that he wasn't interested in and made him feel trapped but found his adventure and is free to follow it until he "walks alone upon the land to become lost in the wind."
1. Krakauer's relationship with his father isnt like Chris' relationship with his father because on page 147 it states" My father was a violate, extremely complicated person, possessed of a brash demeanor that masked deep insecurities." Chris' father Walt, wasn't like that on page 104 he talks about how he loved spending time with Chris and really loved his company but often frustrated his family.

"Its paint is chalky and peeling. Several windows are missing. Hundreds of delicate bones litter the clearing around the vehicle, scattered among thousands of porcupine quills" this is important because if you pay attention to how he explains it the place sounds abandoned and unsafe. There are hundreds of bones everywhere around the vehicle and it is obvious that somethings were dying there.
