True, but the money is going to the foundation, I owe a lot more then $5 for someone who changed my life. I just hope when I re-order the book, the book will come, since the book and DVD are the same UPC numbers. Yes good point on the money going to a charity. And I hope they send you the book this...

Another song from Into the Wild that didn't make either Eddie Vedder's soundtrack or Michael Brook's score was the song "Dakota Themes" by Peter Ostroushko off his Heart of the Heartland CD.

As a newbie here I'd love to know about the inaccuracies....?

I think you might be looking at it wrong. The buses in the distance are being towed up a hill (note the outcropping of rock). It looks like it was shot from someone standing on the trail at the bottom of the hill, or perhaps a very short way up the other side of the valley the buses are being towed...
