3 Ways Lost on a Mountain in Maine Will Inspire Your Family

Donn is a 12-year-old boy in 1939 with a love of the outdoors, a passion for adventure, and a strong desire to spend time with his often-absent dad. Donn is also a boy with a stubborn streak. Thus, when bad weather hits during his family’s hike up Maine’s Mount Katahdin, Donn refuses to turn back. “We’re going to the top,” he tells his father, who reluctantly agrees to let Donn and his twin brother Ryan travel the rest of the way alongside a guide while dad and a younger sibling head back. “We don’t need you,” Donn adds, bitter over his father’s frequent travels for work. In hindsight, though, maybe Donn does need his dad. That storm only grows worse, and by the time the trio reaches the summit, rain and wind are unrelenting. It’s so bad, in fact, that they get separated. Ryan and the guide make it safely back to his dad, but Donn — tragically — gets lost.Donn could be anywhere on Mount Katahdin, which takes at least eight-plus hours to traverse and is filled with dangerous crevices, ledges, and boulders.Will Donn ever be found?The new movie Lost on a Mountain in Maine (PG) follows the gripping story of Donn, who must learn to survive on his own while his family joins the park rangers in organizing a search-and-rescue mission.   It’s one of the best new movies of the year.Here are three reasons this film will inspire the entire family! Photo Credit: ©Balboa Productions
