Synopsis

The most treacherous terrain is found within

Ten years ago, sisters Olivia and Melanie Greene were on a hiking trip when their parents were in a fatal car accident. They haven't seen each other since the
funeral. Olivia coped with the loss by plunging herself into law school, work, and a materialist view of the world—what you see is what you get, and that's all you
get. Melanie dropped out of college and developed an online life coaching business around her DIY spirituality—a little of this, a little of that, whatever makes you happy.

Now, at Melanie's insistence (and against Olivia's better judgment), they are embarking on a hike in the Porcupine Mountains of Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
In this remote wilderness they'll face their deepest fears, question their most dearly held beliefs, and begin to see that perhaps the best way to move forward is the one way they had never considered.

Two sisters that have been estranged since the death of their parents go on a hiking trip to reconnect. It may not have been the best idea. It was a pretty stressful trip, and both sisters still held grudges. Melanie and Olivia had some good moments, but most of the trip was bickering. ALL THAT WE CARR......more
