      A trapper and his dog travel into the Caribou Mountains to rescue a naturalist and a pilot whose plane has been downed in the rugged wilderness of northern Canada. This is the story of the trapper, Link Stevens, and his fearless dog, Chiri. It began when the trapper and his dog set out to rescue a naturalist stranded in the perilous Caribou mountains-the impenetrable storm-blasted heights from which no man has ever returned.
