@GoNorth- I had no idea he left the belt with wayne, i only thought he left his photographs and journal with him, thanks for clearing that up.
ok, so if the hunters saw the expencive looking pack, and left it there for the troopers to find/go through, well how did they miss it? Steve whos been to the bus and documented himself being there with pictures, clearly shows how small the bus is, no real place to stash a pack properly. Well if the hunters seen it, the troopers missed it, and will forsberg knowingly knew of the fact someone died on the bus and went there, got the pack and took it as his own. Well. why did he not offer to give to pack to the family or authorities? and 'many years later' he fins CM's wallet and cash and ID. Why did he wait 'many years' before searching the pack propely top to bottom.i think it is possible [this is a theory, not what i think really happend] after hearing his cabin's demise of being wrecked, he left out to confront alex/chris.maybe even going as far as injuring him, maybe threatening him as well.
Now people may think chris trashed his cabin, maybe he did, maybe he didnt. All i know is that after talking to a life long friend who moved to fairbanks 15 years ago, has told me about bears getting in cabins, trashing them in a manner that looks closely like what a human being would do. Anywho, now what if will really went out and had a nasty confrontation with chris and possibly having it end up as a phsyical altercation, yes maybe chris would have written about it, but then again, will could have went back and made sure no note could be there to incriminate him.
Lets be honest here, some of us have cooler heads than others, but if you think of the fact that after you hear of your cabin being wrecked, you [i know i would] get really mad and go look for who or what might have done it. Will is a long time resident of the area, and knew of the bus for many years. he could have had the idea of someone squatting in it, and maybe to will, the squatter would be the 'guilty party'.
And lets face the fact that Alaska IS wild. Many many strange things happen there that go unexplained. And like i said, this is just a theory not what i really think happened to chris, just another possibility. but i will end this with a question or two. Why did will NOT turn the pack after he knew what happened at the bus not even a couple of months before he got the pack? and why, after the 'many years' of having the pack, and discovering it was chris', why did he NOT give it back to the family? that seems strange and cold hearted to me. but thats just my opinion.
