- 11-year-old adventurer Resilience "Rizzy" O'Neil and her family are camping and exploring the remote Utah desert. While Rizzy is trying to discover for herself the mystery of the lost Chinese workers, she is violently separated from her family, and must now face the wild expanse of the desert in order to find help. She faces intense heat, thirst, hunger, treacherous terrain, deadly creatures, turbulent weather, all in a land designed to crush the living. Rizzy must call on all her wits, strength, skill, and faith to beat the clock and save her family, and just maybe, a piece of history too.
- In 1879 a faithful group of Utahans sought to establish a settlement in southeastern Utah. Their six month journey would required conquering rugged impassable territory, sheer sandstone walls, steep mountainsides and solid rock ridges. The pioneers began by blasting a roadway through a rocky crevice barely large enough for a man to walk through. Then workers tacked a roadway on to the side of a vertical mountain and constructed a ferry to cross a treacherous river. Through that "Hole in the Rock", 250 men women and children, 83 wagons and over a thousand head of livestock descended to the perilous Colorado River. Hosted by author Gerald N. Lund, this powerful documentary relates stories of faith, ingenuity and courage as told by descendants of the Hole in the Rock expedition.
