Great story following Alex McCandles death in the Alaskan Wilderness. I loved Krakauer's retracing of Alex's steps and integrated what he could have felt in through his Alex's paper trail with accidential friends, previous adventurers stories of the wild and his own experience of nearly dying in the Wilderness. Howeverer the,last 50 or so pages felt  a bit slow as it went back and forth what happened/the impetus was put onto tje otehrs experiences and stories rather than the what happened to Alex.
