Into the Wild

Into the Wild is the true story of hiker Christopher McCandless who purposefully got stranded in the Alaskan wilderness. He slept in a perfectly recreated bus, pictured here. The set designers were mimicking the true relic that sits just 50 miles south of where the major motion picture was filmed. The real bus is no easy feat to get to, sitting stagnant after a 20-mile trek through difficult terrain. Anyone who is able to get there is considered a quality hiker.
