This skiing adventure novel
will draw the reader into
the spectacular winter
wilderness of Upper Michigan
and the aspirations and
triumphs of a young
engineering student as he
discovers a new and
rewarding relationship.
In the early 1980’s things
were getting better. The
Iranian Embassy hostages
were coming home. Reagan was
in office. And it was Winter
Carnival week at Michigan
Tech, a tough engineering
college in the spectacular
winter wilderness of the
Upper Peninsula. For most
Tech students, Winter
Carnival was a time to
forget studying and
concentrate on four days of
partying, snow statues, and
ice hockey. For Lars
Svensson, his angst with
life and his frustration
with women is buried by his
attempts to be “big man on
campus.” After all the hard
work of helping to make the
best of a hard winter in
Upper Michigan, Lars finds
himself missing most of ‘da
Carnival.’ He spends it
competing for his university
at an Alpine Skiing race in
Duluth. When he returns, an
unexpected encounter creates
a new beginning in is life.
