A Journey of a Thousand Miles Begins with a Single Step


It is amazing to see how far Chris McCandless travelled in the few years that he was on the road. When one reads the book, it is hard to get a perspective of how many miles McCandless really walked. But, looking at a map of his journeys, it is easy to see that he did cover a lot of ground. And, what is even more astounding to think about is the stories behind those places, and how many people's lives McCandless change while visiting there. As McCandless tramped through all of those towns and cities, he left an impact on many people's lives, an impact which may now still have impressions on people throughout North America.
