Louis
reached
the
top
himself
and
paused
there
momentarily
,
right
foot
planted
on
an
old
fallen
tree
that
was
canted
up
at
a
thirty-five-degree
angle
,
left
foot
on
something
springier
--
a
mesh
of
old
fir
branches
?
He
did
n't
look
down
to
see
,
but
only
switched
the
heavy
trashbag
with
Church
's
body
in
it
from
his
right
hand
to
his
left
,
exchanging
it
for
the
lighter
shovel
.
He
turned
his
face
up
into
the
wind
and
felt
it
sweep
past
him
in
an
endless
current
,
lifting
his
hair
.
It
was
so
cold
,
so
clean
...
so
constant
.
Moving
casually
,
almost
sauntering
,
he
started
down
again
.
Once
a
branch
that
felt
to
be
the
thickness
of
a
brawny
man
's
wrist
snapped
loudly
under
his
foot
,
but
he
felt
no
concern
at
all
--
and
his
plunging
foot
was
stopped
firmly
by
a
heavier
branch
some
four
inches
down
.
Louis
hardly
staggered
.
He
supposed
that
now
he
could
understand
how
company
commanders
in
World
War
I
had
been
able
to
stroll
along
the
top
of
the
trenches
with
bullets
snapping
all
around
them
,
whistling
"
Tipperary
.
"
It
was
crazy
,
but
the
very
craziness
made
it
tremendously
exhilarating
.

He
walked
down
,
looking
straight
ahead
at
the
bright
circle
of
Jud
's
light
.
Jud
was
standing
there
,
waiting
for
him
.
Then
he
reached
the
bottom
,
and
the
exhilaration
flared
up
in
him
like
a
shot
of
coal
oil
on
embers
.
"
We
made
it
!
"
he
shouted
.
He
put
the
shovel
down
and
clapped
Jud
on
the
shoulder
.
He
remembered
climbing
an
apple
tree
to
the
top
fork
where
it
swayed
in
the
wind
like
a
ship
's
mast
.
He
had
not
felt
so
young
or
so
viscerally
alive
in
twenty
years
or
more
.
"
Jud
,
we
made
it
!
"
"
Did
you
think
we
would
n't
?
"
Jud
asked
.
Louis
opened
his
mouth
to
say
something
--
Think
we
would
n't
?
We
're
damn
lucky
we
did
n't
kill
ourselves
!
--
and
then
he
shut
it
again
.
He
had
never
really
questioned
at
all
,
not
from
the
moment
Jud
approached
the
deadfall
.
And
he
was
not
worried
about
getting
back
over
again
.

"
I
guess
not
,
"
he
said
.
"
Come
on
.
Got
a
piece
to
walk
yet
.
Three
miles
or
more
.
"
They
walked
.
The
path
did
indeed
go
on
.
