In July 1975, Linda Forney set out on a solo road trip across America with her dog, Cocoa Gin, with the hopes of visiting the Grand Canyon before returning home. However, a wrong turn on her hike leaves her lost in a maze of canyons, battling the elements and her fears. With no food, dwindling water, and the nights growing cold, Linda must rely on her instincts and her bond with Cocoa to keep her alive. As hope fades and despair sets in, she confronts the terrifying reality of being alone in the wilderness. Can she find her way back to safety before it's too late?
