When Elling Halvorson suffered a construction accident at the bottom of the Grand Canyon in 1966, no one expected him to survive. But then his Viking stubbornness kicked in. The same tenacity that had enabled him to overcome impossible situations in high-risk construction projects now gave him the strength to recover and continue to live a courageous and productive life.
In this story you'll read how his creative approach to challenges extended the lifespan of his disabled sons, prompted him to develop quiet technology for helicopters, and inspired him to invent unheard-of methods and machines to install a freshwater pipeline along a restricted path in the Grand Canyon.
Halvorson's determination to forge detours to destiny brought him great success. But then his heart began to fail. Had he finally met an obstacle he couldn't conquer?
