He lived on natures terms, by his wits, energy and intellect. He referred to his initial attempt trying out this lifestyle as a test. And it evidently agreed with him. I don't see any connection with the Treadwell character at all, other than being in the Alaskan outback. Proenneke lived close to the wildlife indigenous to the location. But he didn't invite disaster to himself like Treadwell did with misinterpretation of inherently dangerous animals in close proximity and just a camera. And Proenneke didn't seek out any notoriety during his great outdoor's testament and amazing adaptation to nature. Treadwell didn't live up to his name and paid the ultimate price. A grizzly's dinner.
