 Schlitz is a tourist in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Ignoring posted warnings which say that you shouldn t climb Mount Washington (the tallest mountain in New England) in bad weather, Schlitz pushes onward up the mountain, briefcase in hand. He gets lost in the snow, becomes entangled in mischief spun by a quirky hermit, and finally ends up skiing down Tuckerman s Ravine at perilous speeds, losing his briefcase several times.
