The main points that Easter focuses on in the book are overuse of technology, overeating, and not being out in nature enough. The reader gets the whole story of this trip throughout the book as Easter makes his points about the comfort crisis. They are there for a month, tracking and hunting caribou. Along with 2 other people, he is left in the Artic wilderness with just the supplies that they can carry. It is also something that you complete to compete against yourself, not something you do so that you can brag about it on social media. The process that you go through is an exploration and expansion of your comfort zone. This is when you have completed the challenge and re-enter normal life. This is when you enter a challenge that is so great your mind is telling you to quit, and you must decide if it is safe to continue the challenge.
A misogi requires you to leave society and go to the wilderness. A misogi is an event that pushes a person to their farthest limits. What we find out is that this is his misogi. The book starts as Easter is getting on a prop plane to take him to the Arctic regions of Alaska on a caribou hunt.
