The luckiest scar on Earth

the long version

"Fourteen year-old Charlotte Potts is training for the national snowboard championships and getting along surprisingly well with her long-lost father, Larry, a former logger with a lucky scar. When Larry signs a petition to stop a condominium development and loses his job at Timberbowl, the local ski area, Charlotte loses her place on the snowboarding team. While Charlotte tries to find another way to compete, Larry persuades her to go snowboarding in the backcountry where adventure turns to tragedy, and Charlotte has to take charge in more ways than one."--Page four of cover.
