Which statement or example best refutes the notion that McCandless was “mentally disturbed?”
The example Krakauer gives of a similar male named McCunn who “neglected to arrange for the pilot to fly him back to civilization at summer’s end” (81).
The examples Krakauer gives of a similar male named Waterman who “committed himself to the Anchorage Psychiatric Institute but left after two weeks, convinced there was a conspiracy….then…he launched yet another solo attempt on Denali” (79).
“Like Rosellini and Waterman, McCandless was a seeker and had an impractical fascination with the harsh side of nature” (Krakauer 85).
“But unlike Waterman, McCandless wasn’t mentally ill. And unlike McCunn, he didn’t go into the bush assuming someone would automatically appear to save [him] (Krakauer 85).
