"It's a good place to spend the winter and I might finally settle down and abandon my trampling life, for good. I'll see what happens when spring comes around, because that's when I tend to get really itchy feel"(Krakauer).
Inspiration or Fool
Many people in the world have a certain way to just free themselves and get away from everything that going on in their lives. As Alex's way was to go into wilderness all along. some people may say he is an idiot but other would support and respect his decision to go off and free himself from whatever was bothering him. I must say there are many other ways to free your mind from stressful or angry things that supply for safety to one's life. Though, I am not Alex so I cannot feel exact sympathy for him as I do not know every reason for his decision to run off into the wilderness. I do respect him for being independent and dealing with his frustrations and his anger in his own manner, unfortunately it cost him his life. I believe Alex symbolizes the small amount of people who are independent as he tried to free himself ion his own civilized way.
