Summary "The Hill of Adventure" by Adair Aldon is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers on Beatrice Deems, a sixteen-year-old girl who navigates her new life in a Montana town called Ely, which she recently moved to with her family. There, she encounters various challenges as she explores the surrounding mountains and interacts with the locals, all the while grappling with her responsibilities towards her ailing aunt and the mysterious circumstances of the area. The opening of the novel introduces Beatrice as she prepares to ride her new horse, Buck, through the rugged landscape of the Rocky Mountains. She experiences both excitement and trepidation as she ventures up to a piece of land left to her by her father. As Beatrice settles into her new home, she reflects on her family's recent relocation due to her Aunt Anna's health issues. The chapter sets the stage for her adventures, foreshadowing encounters with neighbors and hints at tensions in the nearby town related to a labor strike. This initial exploration underscores Beatrice's transition into a more independent and adventurous life as she begins to understand the complexities of her new environment.
