Think that heading out into the Colorado forest in 60 degree weather in
May is totally safe? Think again. As Nico and his baby sitter Hannah
quickly learn, Mother Nature can turn on a dime, and when she does, she
dumps so much snow on them that they can't find their way out of what
should have been a simple overnight backpacking trip.
Trek along with these two as an unexpected snowstorm teaches them just
how much wilderness savvy they have. It's not enough. They need more.
See how their rescuer uses 21st century technology along with timeless
backcountry smarts to try to find his friends. And, experience how Nico,
our 12 year old hero, comes to understand that sometimes misbehaving
isn't as bad as some adults make it out to be.
"Stranded in a Snowstorm" features backcountry powder skiing and
snowboarding, backpacking, fire-lighting, survival, rock and roll, and
emergency whistles. Our heroes have to hike high, hunker low, ski and
ride fast, and huddle together just to survive. Will they make it out
alive? Will their twists and turns be enough to keep them from the
dangers that beautiful Mother Nature brings? Will you feel like
strapping a board to your feet and poking some freshies while you read
this epic adventure?
