This guy almost didn't make it...I've been up in this region once in my life... remote doesn't begin to describe it; you could spend years
there and never see another human. He clearly didn't have his bushcrafty knife and firesteel in his pocket....

Caught some of his story on a canoeing forum, most of the chatter has been about how he ate his dog to survive. A truly awful choice to have to make.
I would like to read his own story, not just the reported snippets, which almost all appear to be for effect over fact.
I hope he recovers quickly and takes up that dog breeders offer (on a separate storyline to the right of the photo)

What astonished me most was his choice of places to do an extended solo trip... the moon would be closer to civilization than that area..
