Description
John has the perfect spot picked out: the top of Spur Mountain. This is where he wants to take Mackenzie so he can get down on one knee and propose to her. Never mind the fact that Mackenzie isn't exactly a willing participant in this little jaunt into the forest. Once he gets her up there, it will all be worth it. All he has to do is get her past a few obstacles, like her dislike of hiking, the recent snowfall that has left more than a few inches on the mountain, and the fight that ensues when she learns that he brought his gun along for protection. As John knows, relationships are all about compromises, so he does what he has to do to stick with his plan. It's only when they're a mile shy of John's goal that they hit an obstacle that can't be bent to anyone's will. The avalanche hits hard and fast, and takes both of them down the mountain in a gut of snow and debris. John is the first to make it to the surface… Mackenzie follows… Neither survive.
