I'm a European that is going to live in Western Canada for a year. What are some good books about people's lives in the Rocky Mountains or mountain states.
Fiction or non-fiction about living alone in the environment would be great. Maybe some good works on frontiersman would be good or even more modern stories. Other books on people living in similar environments would be fine too.

Read the book Missing 411 west coast edition by former police officer David Paulides to read about the supernatural entity that has been abducting and killing people without a trace all along the west coast and Rockies for over a hundred years (true story and it's still happening), remember while you are there to not wear bright colors (especially red) and to always stay inside with the doors and windows firmly locked whenever there is a storm going on or the radio says one is approaching (that's when it abducts people to hide its tracks)
European here too, fed up with life. How can I lose myself in the vast unknown of the new world? Is it easy to convince a burger girl to marry?
