Shadows Under the Mountain Peak - Mary Visker - Bog

For fall break, Terry's three brothers take her and Pam back to the slot canyon and hanging garden where they survived a flash flood during the summer. They all make it through the hike in, Tom getting hit in the head by a rock knocked down by a deer on the cliffs above, and the slow hike out. They stop at a gas station to fuel up for the all-night drive home. Terry and Pam decide to eat dried venison while the brothers are ordering from the grill inside.

They replace the rope, run to the open doors, and race onto the highway.

"I do Pam. This is what Evan's blessing was for. Start praying and tell me everything that comes to your mind."
"Terry, look at the back of the truck..."
