McCandless sets upwards camp in an abased urban center bus that he calls "The Magic Passenger vehicle". He is content with the isolation, the beauty of nature, and the thrill of living off the state. He hunts with a .22, reads books, and keeps a journal as he prepares his new life in the wild.
Flashback [edit]
In May 1990, McCandless graduates with loftier honors from Emory University. He is disenchanted with modern society afterward discovering he and his sister Carine were born out of wedlock.
McCandless destroys his credit cards and identification, donates his savings to Oxfam and sets out on a cross-land drive in his Datsun 210 to feel life in the wilderness. He does not tell his parents nor Carine what he is doing or where he is going and does not contact them after his departure. This causes his parents to get increasingly anxious.
At Lake Mead, McCandless' car is defenseless in a flash alluvion; he abandons it and begins hitchhiking. Burning what remains of his cash, he assumes the name "Alexander Supertramp". In Northern California, McCandless encounters hippie couple January and Rainey. Rainey tells him his human relationship with Jan is failing, which McCandless helps rekindle.
In September, McCandless arrives in Carthage, Southward Dakota, and works for a contract harvesting company endemic by Wayne Westerberg. He leaves after Westerberg is arrested for satellite piracy.
McCandless kayaks down the Colorado River and, though told by park rangers he may not do so without a license, ignores their warnings and goes downriver to Mexico. His kayak is lost in a dust storm, and he crosses back into the United States on foot. Unable to hitch a ride, he jumps on freight trains to Los Angeles. Not long after arriving, however, he starts feeling "corrupted" by mod civilization and leaves. He is forced to resume hitchhiking when railroad police catch and beat him.
In Dec 1991, McCandless arrives at Slab Urban center, in the Imperial Valley, and encounters Jan and Rainey again. He too meets Tracy Tatro, a teenage daughter who shows interest in him, but he turns her downwardly considering she is a minor. Afterwards the holidays, McCandless continues heading for Alaska.
One month afterwards, camping ground nigh Salton City, McCandless meets Ron Franz, a retired widower who lost his family in a car accident while he was serving in the United States Army. He leads a lonely life in a workshop as a leather worker. Franz teaches McCandless leatherwork, resulting in the making of a belt detailing his travels.
After two months with Franz, McCandless decides to leave for Alaska. Franz gives McCandless his old camping and travel gear, along with an offer to adopt him as his grandchild. McCandless tells him they should discuss information technology later on he returns from Alaska.
Flashforward [edit]
Four months later, at the abandoned double-decker, life for McCandless becomes harder, and he makes several poor decisions. Trying to live off the land, he hunts down a big moose with his rifle, but cannot preserve the meat and it spoils inside days. As his supplies dwindle, he realizes that nature can be harsh.
McCandless concludes that true happiness can be constitute only when shared with others, and he seeks to render from the wild to his friends and family unit. However, he finds that the stream he crossed during the wintertime has become wide, deep, and tearing due to the thaw, and he is unable to cross. Defeated, he returns to the omnibus.
In a desperate act, McCandless gathers and eats roots and plants. He confuses similar plants and eats a poisonous one, falling ill as a result. Slowly dying, he continues to document his process of self-realization, and imagines what information technology might take been like if he had managed to return to his family unit. He writes a good day note to the world and crawls into his sleeping handbag to dice.
