1. We do not know the real reason for him leaving, and wanting to go back to civilization. We do know that he was indeed trying and had a book by Tolstoy. The book was about living with other people and being with family and such. Maybe Chris needed to just be with friends and people he cared about. Maybe he got tired of being alone all the time.
2. I believe that McCandless would agree with this statement. If the youth did what was completely acceptable and what was asked of them, no new discoveries or adventures would be accomplished. Elders will almost always disapprove of their youth venturing off into the unknown. They will find it foolish, or even childish. These choices to venture off are necessary. To find one's self and also to discovery what other people may have never seen before.
3. I wouldn't say that his adventures were noble or admirable, but I would say that they are eventually worth the struggle. He found pure happiness that people can't find with just living with materialism or the day-to-day stresses and struggles.
