Waldron Pond is a wanderer’s easy walk around in Concord,MA. Close to civilization. Chris followed an American Dream. He marked his trail. Lived his life choices , but lost in the woods unprepared for wilderness brutality. A journal kept him company but blindfolded he trudged through the hinterlands. I’d say unprepared. But no matter he took the challenge. Dealt with his his demons which did not win in the end. Elements leaped like furies that overwhelmed. Yet he made that choice to find his own path away from nightmares that confront civilization every day. Just walking across the street could be your demise.

Thanks Chloe for making my day, celebrating Chris birthday escaping life but butting head on with problems of health, or homeless, food, water, the list goes on.

Best I can do is know my self. Anon.

This is so great. Chris’ story is one of the main reasons I wanted to go on The Green Journey to start with. His exploration, both internal and external, is inspiring to so many in our generation and will continue to be so. Thank you for writing such a beautiful piece! -Polo
