In the summer of 1980, Beth Easton and her recently widowed mother move from Los Angeles to a small town in Washington in an attempt to reassemble their broken lives.

Jody, a social outcast with a troubled homelife and an alcoholic mother and her boyfriend Ray who is implied to be abusing Jody, shares Beth’s love for ‘Winnie the Pooh’ stories, and the two girls become fast friends.

Looking for adventure, Beth and Jody make plans to explore the mysterious caves below Bear Mountain, where legend tells of a long-lost gold mine buried deep within the mountain’s treacherous depths.
