I run produce from Salinas to them there frozen parts up north, Good luck with that, Carlile isn't going to hire you they think more of there trucks than that.

No offense but pay up your life insurance before you go, you may not be coming back

 

Man that is a run I would LOVE...
in the summer.
How hard a gig is that to get?

 

Long ago, I think the guy I was drive for used to get it from a broker in Ak.

 

I'm thinking something else; a bit more of a cautionary tale...

 

Good movie.

 

Good book too. You gotta know what your doing up there. He didnt -

 

He was also likely suffering from schizophrenia and may well have been suicidal.
Krakauer does not give that angle enough investigation.
I think he was pushing it a bit further each excursion in hopes that he would die.

 

Havent read Into The Wild, but did have the pleasure of reading Under the Banner of Heaven

 

You don't get much more cautionary than Jack London's short story "To Build A Fire." Though I understand Krakauer is more modern and easier to relate too. London's fictional short stories are written from his own experience hiking through the Yukon.
