Nate, Kira, Hope, and Oz have planned their Grand Canyon adventure for months. Armed with maps, camping gear, and lots of food and water, the twelve-year olds are certain nothing can go wrong. But when they receive a mysterious letter from Nate s late-grandfather, who once studied the elusive California condor, their carefully planned trip turns upside down. They suddenly find themselves on a treasure hunt through the Grand Canyon. As they hike from clue to clue, the adventurers must face stormy weather, wild animals, and dangerous terrain in their quest to make the discovery of a lifetime. From one rim to the other, they learn about the resilience of nature, the importance of friends and family, and the wonders waiting to be discovered within Grand Canyon.
