good points guys.
one thing some people may not realize is that the reason he went where he did w/out a map is because he wanted to go somewhere that wasnt on the map.....well since the entire world is mapped these days the only way to get off the map is to throw the map away. That takes some guts.
Also, and I'm sure OMT knows this, is that there are ALOT of people like supertramp, and they all seem to flock to Alaska in the spring/summer....they dont all go get lost in the woods, some are simply what I call "adventurers" and others are def. trying to figure out something in their life that they dont seem to understand, and they think that Alaska will magiclly help them make sense out of their life, or will heal wounded souls.
too bad it's not always that simple.
