Krakauer delayed the information for the following reasons.

Explanation:

This chapter basically revolves around the death of Mccandless and the factors he went through after he found the bus. krakauer wanted the people who were reading to know the kind of person Mccandless was before death and hence he delayed the information on her in previous chapters.

It was a brilliant way of portrayal of Mccandless by krakauer since he fed the reader's curiosity by delaying the concept of his death giving the reader more insight to the fiction.
