I watched an interesting movie

Tweet

It took place in 1939. It was about a 12 year old boy who ran away from his hiking party due to emotional angst and got lost on Mount Kathadan in Maine in July of 1939. Mount Kathadan is the Northern most point of the Appalachian trail. That is its claim to fame. It's a huge mountain, and it was really interesting to get a look at it from different perspectives. This kid was incredibly lucky it was the middle of summer when he got lost, as any other time of the year he certainly wouldn't have survived. Despite the massive search for him, (he was gone for 8 days, and presumed dead after 7, he actually rescued himself. He had walked 80 miles, and had laid down to die, but he saw a vision of his dad saying "Come to me, and trudged on."
