About this book

The chance to hunt a Labrador trapping trail gives Bob Gray hope of helping his family through a difficult year. His father owes money at the trading store, and his sister Emily needs hospital treatment after a fall. Douglas Campbell grants Bob the Big Hill trail, provoking resentment from another trapper who wanted it. Dillon Wallace ties the young hunter's adventure to the cost of care and the uncertain earnings of the fur trade.

Farther inland, Bob travels with hunters whose methods differ from those he knows at home. The account follows their meals, a long march across the snow, and preparations for a stay beside a frozen lake. Spruce boughs, piled firewood and snow banked against the shelter show the work behind a comfortable camp. Bob's attempts to help with camp duties bring disagreements about custom. For young readers, these details connect wilderness adventure with learning how other people live and finding a place among unfamiliar companions.
