Long Before the “Into the Wild” Bus Became a Tourist Deathtrap, It Was My Dad’s Hunting Camp

I agree with this.

There are some incredibly beautiful places in Alaska. If some f-turd chooses to make the trek to this bus so be it. If they don't understand what they are doing so be it.


Agree. Let Darwin act.
