Chapter 5: Bullhead City In this chapter it talks about how Mr. McCandless had stopped traveling for quite a period of a time to be precise he spent a little over two months in one place, Bullhead city this however happened to be the longest time Mr. McCandless ever ‘settled down.’ In the excerpt The dominant primordial beast was strong in Buck, and under the fierce conditions of trail life it grew and grew. Yet it was a Secret growth. His newborn cunning gave him poise and control. It bears relevance to this chapter because it describes Chris McCandless as he was ‘charging up’ for his next big adventure and try to save up some money for the big trip to Alaska, but ended up cherishing Bullhead city and decides maybe perhaps he should stick around for a bit build some more traits, learn new things, we know this because he had written a letter to Wayne Westerberg, he took a strong liking to the city and decided to enjoy his stay. I believe that this reference, yet was a secret growth. His newborn cunning gave him poise and control. Reflects on the responsibility he took on during those two months in Bullhead city. Chris took into consideration that he might actually settle down and considered ending his ‘tramping life’. In referring to the quote “Yet was a secret growth.” McCandless had also held his job at the local McDonald’s, he even went as far as opening a savings account at the local bank. Chris had tried to hide the person he actually was. He tried to hide the fact that he was a traveler or explorer who had been living out of his backpack and did not know where he would end up the next day. I was really convinced that Mr. McCandless was going to continue his life in AZ, but before the audience got comfortable with the idea of Chris McCandless settling down and starting a new life for himself boom Chris suddenly gets the urges to be on the move again and decides to leave Bullhead
