About this ebook
Flying in his father’s plane, Samuel Bench crashes on a Colorado mountainside. After surviving the crash in which his father dies, the teenager is rescued wandering alone through a snowy forest by a genuine, fur-outfitted man of the mountains, Roger Hayden. Saved but stranded at the man’s cabin through the winter, the boy learns from the old-timer virtue, integrity, truth, trust, and honor, traits the young man has been unfamiliar with. Enduring the hard rigors of winter survival, we see the two men emotionally grow with one another.
The teenager leads a physical and mentally demanding subsistence living alongside the old man’s roughness. The youth learns hunting, trapping, and living through the harsh winter with the gruff, old mountain man. Surviving trials and tribulations, the young man matures to enjoy a humble life. Throughout the story, the youth learns how to live an atypical life under unusual circumstances in an extraordinary stranger’s mountain refuge.
