The character, the man from “To Build a Fire” was arrogant in his decision to face the wild alone. Throughout the story the man’s character is overly confident because he did not listen to anyone’s advice. This man was not very smart when he prepared for the trip. I also think that he was not a very patient person. He just left on a trail think he could beat everybody there. I don’t think that he cared that much about the dog that was with him either. At the end of the story, he was not successful and almost died. The character in the story “To Build a Fire” was very confident because he thought he could take the longer trail and make it on time to cabin. He didn’t think that he had weakness and would be able to survive the cold weather
