This is one turning point in Chris's life. After the flood most of the things he packed for his trip was runied and the road was washed out. He took off on foot with out half his gear. He was hiking around but because of the hot July temperatures he suffered from extreme heat stroke. Most of the iteams left behind later in his adventure he would have needed. It would have helped in alot ex. his riffle!
