The Devil Atop Cauldron Peak: An Epic Rocky Mountain Duel
Southern Alberta in the 1880s. The country here is wide, beautiful, and unforgiving. Winter frosts bite deep, and summer sun sears the land.
George and Grace Dunn are young and newly married, determined to build a life and raise a family on the open prairie. Every crop, every fence post, every meal comes at a cost.
When drought ravages their fields, the Dunns face a hard truth. They can survive the winter, but there may not be enough money to buy seed for the spring. Like many pioneers before them, they may be forced to abandon the dream they fought to build and return to a life they once left behind.
Refusing to give in, George sets out to run a trapline high in the Rocky Mountains, in a remote valley beneath Cauldron Peak. With hard work, luck, and grit, he hopes to earn enough to secure their future.
But the wilderness has its own rules, and something fierce is moving through the timber.
On a frontier where survival is never guaranteed, the elements push back hard. And sometimes, so does the wild.
