They are going to climb a mountain, but Phee is afraid of heights. Phee climbs the mountain with his Uncle’s encouragement. At the top they discover Elephant Rock. Uncle John surprises Phee with a memory box, but he leaves it behind. Soon after, Uncle John passes away unexpectedly. Phee writes him a letter and wants to put it in his memory box.
