Alexander Supertramp was his own man. He did not allow the confines of society and the judgmental opinions of people define who he saw himself to be. He was a revolutionary thinker and an idealist. He was a transcendentalist and somebody who saw beyond the narrow and biased. He, above all else, wanted to feel free in a place where spiritual and self-freedom is limited and rare. His goal for living such an isolated life was to find this self-liberation and, keeping this in mind, he did ultimately achieve just what he set out to discover. Although Chris made a fatal mistake, foolish would not be the word to describe his endeavors. His goal from the start of his journey was for self-discovery. I admire Chris’s courage to walk away from the comfort of home and into a place of unknowns. In the time he spent on his travels, he gathered more wisdom than many will uncover in their lifetime. Alexander Supertramp is a true visionary and inspiration. All he desired from life was life itself and the truth behind it. It is unfortunate that he would lose his life along this journey but he lived with a purpose. Sometimes the greatest, clearest minds can be difficult to understand. Chris had a very hubristic attitude but looking beyond his occasional lofty, pompous nature, he was a true explorer.
This was "the climactic battle to kill the false being within and victoriously conclude the spiritual pilgrimage. No longer to be poisoned by civilization he flees, and walks alone upon the land to become lost in the wild."
Happy Trails
