Vertical Limits

Two fifteen-year-old protagonists, Jake and Peter, and an older friend decide to assist Jake on a solo climb of a 3000 foot cliff face. Peter intends to produce a documentary of the adventure. They pick up a hitch-hiker named Katja, a fifteen-year-old girl, who is on the run from government authorities for personal tragic reasons. Katja also happens to be an expert, avid climber. The oldest of the group needs to go on a "search and rescue" mission to help find a lost seven-year-old boy.
