This traveler creates so many errors. Not only did he disregard the guidance of the old-timer from Sulphur Creek, who cautioned him that "no man must travel alone in the Klondike after fifty below", but he also makes every determination to diminish his probabilities of triumph. He could have decided not to take part in this journey and he could have turned back. His central flaws were not remaining put long enough and not preparing himself adequately for his travel. His downright major blunder was making the journey at all. In the end it was his pride that killed him. He thought he would have nothing to worry about and could do it alone. Instead of bringing a partner alongside him, he decided to bring a husky that didn’t help him when he needed it.
