In the mountains of Montana in the year 1877 a woman and her dog get lost in a blizzard while being pursued by a hungry 2,000 pound grizzly bear. That winter marks the worse snow storm in history with snow flakes eight inches in diameter. There seems to be no place to hide when every step she take leaves a footprint in the snow for the gigantic grizzly to follow. Abigail Sterling and her faithful mountain dog Pete, try everything in their power to find safety from their relentless pursuer but running away seems to be impossible from The Snow Tracker.
