Book Reviews of Miracle on the Mountai H
Book Review: An amazing tale
Summary: 5 Stars
Wow...This book was amazing. When I entered the library I first picked this book up with reluctance. I'm of a rather un-religious nature, and I feared from the title that this might be a preachy book. However, in need of something to read, I checked it out anyway. Let me just say: wow. This story greatly displayed faith and survival in a way that touched the heart and kept my interest. It wonderfuly integrated religious teachings and a great story, one that really did make me think. I wish the best to the Couillard's in the future and reccomend this book to anyone who need proof that the impossible can be overcome if you keep trying and keep faith in yourself and others.

The view of the 7,300-foot-high Kfartalkaya Mountain was breathtaking--magnificent peaks against a bright blue sky, wisps of clouds--nothing threatening. They headed for the T-bar that would take them to the summit.It was about 2:30 when they reached the top, and although it had started to snow, they still had time to ski. Mike made note of his surroundings and decided to use the overhead line of the lift as a guide. They kept the line in sight as they glided downward, but moment by moment, the snow's intensity increased. Ice pellets stung their faces. Visibility decreased. Hidden rocks sent them plunging into the snow. Dense stands of pine trees loomed in front of them, forcing them to go right, then left, and off the trail. Desperately, they looked for the lift line-- or anything familiar. They saw nothing but white. They were lost...
