There are many similarities between Chris McCandless and Gene Rosellini. McCandless and Rosellini both came from wealthy backgrounds which allowed them to go to college. They also both love to learn, explore and push their limits. They both went on adventures into the wild which was hard work to succeed their goals and survive. Both men had natural talent, they were athletic and intelligent.  

I think Gene Rosellini influenced Chris McCandless to attempt his adventure. When Gene went on his adventure he took a slim amount of supplies. Chris may have thought that he didn’t need more supplies that he already had. Another thing is Gene survived 30 years in Alaska which probably gave Chris the idea that he could survive his trip. Although there are many similarities between Chris and Gene there are also many differences.
