McCandless and many others of his ilk like Henry Thoreau and Jack London‚the wilderness of the west has a very specific allure. McCandless sees the wilderness as a purer state‚ a place free of the evils of modern society‚ where someone like him can find out what he is really made of‚ live by his own rules‚ and be completely free.
