Alaska is a beautiful, scary place that's mostly wilderness. Anybody who goes into the wilderness must realize that it's utterly unfeeling and and kill in an instant.

I have enjoyed almost anything written by Jon Krakauer, the author.

A good example is the bear lover who thought he new what bears understood and reveled in having his picture taken incredibly close to them....that is until he and his girlfriend were killed and eaten!!!

With the current condition of humanity, the Democratic Party has it easy.

Why do people lionize this kid? He basically murdered himself by failing to make even minimal provisions for his safety.

He:

(a) died of starvation (or possibly potato-seed poisoning) because he lacked basic foraging skills,

(b) killed a moose and then let most of it rot because he was ignorant of proper food-preservation techniques, and

(c) failed to keep any sort of lifeline to civilization in case of emergency.

He was no sort of a hero.

Interesting story. Classic survival tragedy. Wondering what they’ll do with the bus.

Main takeaway from all the survival studies I’ve done: don’t expect to eat; great if you do, know what you can, but expect starvation.

Place the bus near the bridge to nowhere, now it can be the “bridge to the bus.”

Gaia worshipers may be momentarily surprised by what happens when they meet their goddess in person. Then they die.

The remake was going to be called “Into the CHAZ”, but the CHAZ people changed the name of their Utopia.

How are the tourists going to pet the moose, the brown bears and scratch behind the buffalo's ears now?

As you said - Nature is dangerous. Don't get et, you touristy numbnuts.
