The Darwin Expedition

by Diane Tullson

tagged: survival stories, friendship
Description

Tej and Liam are going snowboarding. When they take a shortcut over a treacherous logging road and have a accident, their adventure becomes more about survival than fresh powder. Tracked by a hungry bear, while trying to outrun the weather without any food, Tej and Liam learn about their friendship and what it will take to survive. When Tej is hurt, Liam decides he has to go for help—alone.
