Here's what Alaskan Park Ranger Peter Christian had to say about the Into The Wild guy, Christopher McCandless:


"When you consider McCandless from my perspective, you quickly see that what he did wasn't even particularly daring, just stupid, tragic, and inconsiderate. First off, he spent very little time learning how to actually live in the wild. He arrived at the Stampede Trail without even a map of the area. If he [had] had a good map he could have walked out of his predicament [... ] Essentially, Chris McCandless committed suicide."

And I'm sorry, I have to do it, I have to ask Becca, I'm dying to know:

What's Maine like, is it nice? I heard the weather is nice, is it?
