Westy Martin in the Rockies

At the bustling Labor Day dinner in the Catskills, Westy Martin, a quiet scout from Bridgeboro, is stunned when the camp’s founder announces a surprise opportunity. Uncle Jeb Rushmore, the grizzled trail guide who has lived the legend of the western frontier, has chosen Westy to accompany him on the trip. The announcement sparks laughter and curiosity among the boys, and Westy suddenly finds himself thrust from city comforts into the promise of an authentic western trek.

The upcoming journey will test Westy’s scouting know‑how as he trades city comforts for open plains, towering mountains, and rugged river crossings. Along the way he will meet seasoned trappers, learn the language of the land, and confront the practical challenges of life on the range. Listeners can expect a lively, coming‑of‑age tale that blends humor with the raw spirit of the Old West, all seen through the eyes of a teenage scout eager to prove his aim.
