About this book
Skiing through a heavy snowfall in the Sawtooth Mountains, young hydrologists Troy Braden and Alec Patterson of the Division of Agriculture climb toward a marker, guided by a radiation compass strapped to a wrist. Rick Raphael's science fiction story deals with fresh water, a supply America is already pressing to its limits, in a future where the world has long since left the steel age behind. It first appeared in Analog Science Fact & Fiction, September 1963.
