Two "gracefully aging gentlemen" embark on a trek into the wilderness to visit again the special places of their youth. Increasingly threatened by unpredictable weather, bodies that aren't what they used to be and serious injury, the gentlemen push on, until they find themselves battered and nearly immobilized in a mountain basin two miles high. For one of the men, the trip stirs memories of a time half a century gone, when he and another boy vied for the affection of a girl named Till, a time of joy, adventure, youthful exuberance and life-changing events the man still struggles to understand. A coming-of-old-age story and more, briskly paced, adventurous and humorous.
