      About the Series

      Chapter 1

      Kevin’s eyes lit up the instant his dad turned down the dirt road leading towards Wellington Lake. Not only was it one of his favorite places to camp in Colorado, his parents had also invited his best friend Emalyn to come along.

      How much longer until we get there? Emalyn asked as she peered out the window at the passing trees.

      We should be there pretty soon, it’s only ten miles to the lake, Kevin replied.

      How big is it? Emalyn asked as she tried to picture it in her head.

      I think the lake is a mile long, but it’s not that wide, Kevin replied.

      Can we swim in it?

      We could, but the water isn’t very warm. So unless it gets really hot, I doubt that we will want to.

      What do you do for fun? Emalyn asked.

      I usually just play along the edge of the lake with my mom, and when I get tired of that, my dad likes to take me up to Castle Mountain for some off-trail adventures.

      Where is that?

      It’s on the back side of the lake. You can’t miss it, it’s a huge granite peak that towers over everything around it.

      Have you ever made it to the top of Castle Mountain? Emalyn asked out of curiosity.

      No, the last time we tried we had to turn back because our dog couldn’t make it past the boulder field that’s just below the peak.

      Why is that?

      She was old, and the boulders were too large for her to climb over, Kevin replied.

      You and I should try and reach the top… if your parents will let us go up there.

      I think they will. My dad calls me his mountain goat because I do so well off-trail whenever we go hiking. I know it’s kind of silly, but I like it.

      What did you have to do to earn that name? Emalyn chuckled.

      The last time we were here, my dad took me on a grueling hike around the base of Castle Mountain and then asked me to find my way back to the campsite without a map or compass. I knew it was a test to see if I could navigate without him in case we ever got separated, or if I wanted to go hiking on my own.

      Were you able to do it?

      Yeah, the first thing I did was locate a couple of landmarks that I was familiar with, and then I used them to guide me back to the campsite… and that’s how I earned the nickname mountain goat.

      That’s pretty cool, Emalyn admitted. If we reach the top, I want a nickname like that.

      "How
