I't s a long shot as a match for what you're recalling, not even fiction (maybe embellished) but reads like a novel and has a setting matching your description.

I really wanted to reply just to give say how great it was to see someone else talk about "Forest and Crag" it is one of the few hard cover books that survived and will always survive the purge of ever accumulating physical books. I even take some of the story out around the campfire now and then with my nephews.

If you like F and C you might also check out "Katahdin" http://www.outdoors.org/publications/books/katahdin.cfm
