Set during the heyday for drugs, sex, and rock 'n' roll, the country awash in war protests and women's rights demonstrations, Nancy Nelson and her young husband, Jack, take a job as fire lookout attendants manning Corral Hill, a 6,000' mountain located in the vast Clearwater National Forest of Idaho. Like other women, Nancy wants freedom, not only for a fair wage, but from her former life, growing up with a sexually abusive stepfather. As Nancy keeps fire watch at 6000', she wrestles with inner demons, as well as health issues that could make it impossible to have a baby, something she desperately wanted. Every emotion she feels is exacerbated by solitude, frightening lightning storms, wildfires, natural phenomenon, and her demanding young husband. STRUCK: A Season on a Fire Lookout, is a story of isolation, extreme weather, and emotional challenges, changing how Nancy sees herself as she courageously moves forward, gaining confidence in life.
