N2  - "Pluck on the Long Trail; Or, Boy Scouts in the Rockies" by Edwin L. Sabin is a children's adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a group of young Boy Scouts from Colorado, led by their red-headed patrol leader, Roger Franklin, as they embark on an ambitious journey to deliver a secret message across the challenging Rocky Mountains. The narrative emphasizes themes of camaraderie, self-reliance, and the joys of outdoor discovery.  At the start of the story, we are introduced to the Elk Patrol of the 14th Colorado Troop, a tight-knit group of six boys preparing for their challenging quest. Their mission is to traverse one hundred miles through unforgiving terrain, navigating potential dangers from nature and rival boys who wish to thwart their progress. As they set out equipped only with their knowledge of scoutcraft, personal skills, and pack burros, the Scouts face various obstacles, including the threat of rival campers. The boys' excitement and determination are palpable as they prepare to test their abilities and bond through shared challenges, setting the stage for an engaging tale of adventure and personal growth.
