The only example in memory of a movie being as good
as, or better, than the book! :-)
I did feel some affinity with Chris, as I was, believe
it or not, young and idealistic once upon a time. And
I did foolish things solo hiking that could have
ended just as badly. But, what doesn't destroy us,
strengthens us, or some such nonsense...
Cheers,
