jamie:
looks like they are making a movie of krakauer's book into the wild. hopefully they dont screw it up. if you havent read it it's a very good story about a man who gets sick of it all and dissapears into the alaskan wildernesss. peace

cowboy:
Sounds like where I need to be ;D. Am currently reading - Sailing alone around the world/ Joshua Slocum: Nothing to do with primitive but interesting as hell - he was the first to do it around 1895.

Dane:
Jamie, is it the same guy a documentary was about, I think called "Alone in the Wilderness?" He was a scientist or engineer, and built a cabin, hunted, grew his own food, etc. He lived basicallly alone for many, many years. I saw that show a year or two ago on PBS, but it was during fund raising, so they didn't show the whole thing. Amazing guy.

Stick Shooter:
That guy was awsome built his own log cabin with only a axe, and saw home made mallet ect... What a great show. Well worth watching. Stick Shooter

jamie:
no i dont believe so. krakauer is the guy who wrote into thin air. the book about the worst everest expedition.
