Description
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

Paul Wozniak has been an outdoorsman since he could walk. First in Pennsylvania, he roamed, hunted, fished and skied the Appalachian hills. Since then, in Colorado, he has been inspired and in awe of the vastness and beauty of the Rocky Mountains. He created the Green Radventures kids book apps in order to express his love for the Earth and to share what he believes are important environmental lessons. All of his works include his music, his love for which comes from almost two decades DJ'ing on music radio.
