Nice sentiment, but it’s California after all. I don’t think it’s actually legal to do so!

This guy reminded me of Chris McCandless, and sure enough, there’s a mention of both men on Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Into_the_Wild
Into the Wild (1996) by Jon Krakauer is a bestselling non-fiction book about the adventures of Christopher McCandless. It is an expansion of Krakauer’s 9,000-word article, “Death of an Innocent”, which appeared in the January 1993 issue of Outside.[1] Krakauer intersperses McCandless’s story with a discussion of the wilderness experiences of people such as Everett Ruess, John Muir, and John Menlove Edwards, as well as some of his own adventures.
