Maggie loves hiking mountains with her best friend, Nick, but off the trail, her life is complicated. A girl who bullied Maggie relentlessly in middle school has returned. And after Maggie and Nick kiss, their relationship becomes strained. This is a nuanced exploration of the difficulty of recovering from being bullied and of the restorative power of the natural world.
