Despite the conflicting public opinion‚ Chris McCandless succeeded in his goal to survive in the wilderness and taught the world valuable lessons in the process. Chris McCandless “probably died on August 18th‚ 112 days after he had walked into the wild.” (119‚ Krakauer) He survived with very little gear and food‚ even though he was essentially cut off from the world.
