THE TRACKS SPLIT OFF HERE, VERY FRESH, JUST NOW.

ONE GOES LEFT, AND ONE
GOES RIGHT, SO IT'S TWO.

IT CAN BE DANGEROUS.

YOU KNOW, WE'VE HAD SOME
REALLY CLOSE CALLS BEFORE.

BIRD'S HOUSE IS RIGHT THERE.

DEFINITELY LET BIRD KNOW
SHE NEEDS TO START CARRYING

A GUN UP HERE.

ON THIS EPISODE OF
"ALASKAN BUSH PEOPLE"...

THESE ARE PAW PRINTS.

THERE ARE WOLVES OUT HERE.

NARRATOR:
...WINTER TEMPERATURES DROP...

THIS MORNING, EVERYTHING
IS JUST COVERED.

...AS A DANGEROUS NEW PREDATOR
STALKS NORTH STAR RANCH.

- THERE'S BLOOD OVER HERE.
- BLOOD?

AND THE BROWN SIBLINGS RACE TO FINISH THEIR HOMES

BEFORE THE GROUND FREEZES OVER.

- IT'S GOING TO FALL.
- IT'S NOT GOING TO FALL.

BUT WITH THE SAFETY
OF THE HOMESTEAD IN JEOPARDY...

I'M READY TO
DEFEND MY RANCH.

...THE WOLF PACK PREPARES

TO FIGHT
FOR THIS LAND THEY CALL HOME.

- SO THAT'S DEFINITELY A HOWL.
- YEAH, NO. THAT'S A HOWL.

YO, NOAH!
WHERE'S YOUR WIFE?

SHE'S UP AT THE TENT.
WE HEARD A HOWL.

YOU HEAR A GUNSHOT?

WELL, HERE I AM AGAIN
DOING DISHES.

I HATE DOING DISHES.

I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WERE
BROWNIES UP HERE.

I GET UP HERE, TONS OF DISHES.

I'M LIKE, "OH, THE SURPRISE
IS DISHES.

OH, THANKS, GUYS."

I'M ACTUALLY GONNA NEED
A SPONGE FOR THIS ONE,

SO I'M GOING TO GET
SOME SAGE BRUSH.

IN ALASKA, WE WOULD USE MOSS FOR
THIS, AND IT'S SUPER STERILE.

I ASSUME SAGE BRUSH IS STERILE.
I DON'T REALLY KNOW.

BASICALLY, THE SPONGE IS JUST
TO KNOCK OFF THE GUNK.

THEN I'LL RINSE IT
WITH A LITTLE FRESH SNOW.

LIKE, THIS IS A BAD ONE.
OH, WAIT.

I FOUND A LITTLE
LEFTOVER BROWNIE MAKINGS.

♪♪

MMM.

WHO GETS THE LAST LAUGH NOW?

OH, THEY LEFT POWDERED SUGAR.

♪♪

IT'S EARLY WINTER ON THE BROWNS' 400-ACRE MOUNTAIN HOMESTEAD.

THE FAMILY HAS BEEN
WORKING FEVERISHLY

TO MAINTAIN THE RANCH,

BUT NOW THE PRIORITY
FOR THE SIBLINGS

IS TO COMPLETE
THEIR INDIVIDUAL HOMESTEADS.

COME ON, WINDOWS.

YOU KNOW, AS AMI AND I,
WE ALL GET OLDER...

IT HAPPENS...
WE HAVE HOPED AND DREAMED

THAT SOME DAY
WE COULD GIVE THE KIDS

THEIR OWN PLACE,
THEIR OWN WORLD,

BUT THAT THEIR WORLD
WOULD STILL BE WITHIN OUR WORLD,

A PLACE WHERE THEY CAN
STILL BE INDEPENDENT,

WHICH GIVES THEM THEIR FREEDOM.

IT LOOKS LIKE THE GOOD LORD
HAS BLESSED US WITH OPPORTUNITY.

YOU KNOW, ALL THE GUYS,
YOU KNOW,

LIVING ON THEIR OWN
PIECE OF LAND,

IT LETS THEM LIVE LIKE THEY'VE
ALWAYS LIVED THEIR WHOLE LIFE

AND HOW THEY'VE CHOSEN TO LIVE.

AS LONG AS THEY'RE HAPPY
AND DOING THIS,

I THINK EVEN LONG AFTER
WE'RE GONE,

IT'S STILL GOING TO BE STRONG,
AND IT'S GOING TO KEEP GROWING.

BUT IN JUST A FEW WEEKS,

THEIR PROGRESS
WILL COME TO A HALT.

TEMPERATURES
WILL DROP INTO THE TEENS,

AND THE GROUND WILL BE FAR
TOO FROZEN TO BUILD ON.

I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT AT THIS POINT FOR ME

TO TRY AND GET SOME HELP.

I WANT TO GET IT UP
BEFORE IT GETS SUPER COLD

IN THE DEAD OF WINTER.

THIS...YES.

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE NEED.

WITH ALL OF US, LIKE,
BUILDING OUR OWN HOUSE,

LIKE, THAT'S A LOT OF HOUSES,
AND THAT'S A LOT OF LUMBER.

SO ONE THING I SPECIFICALLY WANT
TO DO IS USE,

LIKE, SALVAGED LUMBER.

IT'S PRETTY STRAIGHTFORWARD.

THE NAILS,
YOU JUST PEEL THEM OUT,

AND THEN THE BOARD COMES UP,

AND WE SAVE 100 PERCENT
OF IT PRETTY MUCH.

OKAY.

BIRD AND I STUMBLED
ONTO THIS PLACE IN TOWN,

AND IT'S COVERED
IN TONGUE AND GROOVE.

THE FELLAS HERE,
THEY'VE BEEN TEARING IT DOWN,

AND THERE'S STILL A LOT
OF GOOD WOOD HERE,

SO WE'RE HOPING TO REPURPOSE
SOME OF IT FOR BIRD'S HOUSE

AND MAYBE EVEN
PROJECTS AFTER THAT.

YEAH.

LET'S TRY TO KEEP THEM
AS INTACT AS POSSIBLE

- BECAUSE THIS IS FOR MY HOUSE.
- YEAH.

SHOULD EVEN HAVE ENOUGH,
IF WE'RE LUCKY,

TO DO SOME OTHER PROJECTS.

IT'S ALREADY GETTING ME
THINKING.

YOU'RE THINKING, YEAH?
WELL...

YOU ACTUALLY NEED STRUCTURE NOW?
WELL, LOOK AROUND.

THERE'S DEFINITELY AROUND HERE
TO SIDE YOUR PLACE...

YEAH.

...AND MAYBE
ANOTHER HOUSE, TOO.

YOU NEVER KNOW.

HELPING BIRD SALVAGE MATERIALS
FOR HER OWN HOUSE

KIND OF GETS ME THINKING ABOUT

WHAT I'M DOING
TOWARD THAT FRONT.

RAQUELL HAS BEEN
STAYING OFF THE MOUNTAIN,

BUT SHE CAN'T STAY
DOWN THERE FOREVER

AND NEITHER DOES SHE WANT TO.

SO WE HAVE TO HAVE SOMEWHERE
TO LIVE, YOU KNOW,

WHICH MEANS A HOUSE
KIND OF SITUATION,

BUT I THINK WE'RE READY
TO JUST TAKE THAT NEXT STEP.

I'VE ALWAYS THOUGHT ABOUT
HAVING A LOG CABIN IN THE WOODS.

LIKE, IT JUST SOUNDS
PERFECT TO ME.

WE ONLY HAVE, LIKE,
A FEW WEEKS TO BUILD.

YOU KNOW,
I NEED TO GET RAQUELL

SOMEWHERE THAT'S HE DOESN'T HAVE
TO STAY DOWN THE MOUNTAIN,

DOESN'T GO BACK
TO MINNESOTA.

THAT'S, LIKE, THE LAST THING
THAT I WANT TO HAPPEN.

ALRIGHT. YOU READY
TO MOVE THIS THING DOWN?

YOU WANT TO...
YEAH. I'LL HARNESS UP.

YOU GOING TO CLIMB DOWN
WHILE YOU'RE HOOKED?

PROBABLY NOT.

COLE-Y!

COLE-Y!

COLE!

KEE, KEE, KA!

YOU REALLY THINK
HE COULD HAVE GOT THIS FAR?

RHAIN'S CAT, COLE, HAS BEEN MISSING FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS.

THAT'S SOMETHING HE DOESN'T DO.

UNDERSTANDABLY,
RHAIN IS VERY CONCERNED.

OKAY, TRACKS.

THAT MEANS GO STRAIGHT DOWN
TO OUR HOUSE.

BEING THAT THERE ARE TRACKS HERE
AND THIS CLOSE TO US,

IT'S NOT JUST COLE
THAT WE'RE WORRIED ABOUT.

IF THERE IS A PACK
ON THE PROPERTY,

THERE'S JUST NO TELLING
WHAT THEY COULD DO.

THE BROWNS' MOUNTAIN REGION IS LITTERED WITH FERAL PREDATORS:

COYOTES, WOLVES, AND COUGARS.

AND WITH THE COLD WINTERS
AND A SCARCITY OF FOOD,

THESE ANIMALS OF PREY
ARE INCHING CLOSER THAN EVER

TO THE BROWNS' RANCH.

THIS ISN'T GOOD.

THIS IS IN THE MIDDLE
OF COYOTE TERRITORY.

I'M REALLY SCARED FOR COLEY,
AND IT JUST MAKES ME NERVOUS

FOR HAVING ELI UP
ON THE MOUNTAIN.

IT'S ONLY GOING TO TAKE 2
SECONDS FOR ME TO TURN MY BACK,

AND ELI IS JUST GOING
TO DISAPPEAR INTO THE WOODS.

IT MAKES ME REALIZE
IF ONE LITTLE CREATURE

LIKE MY CAT CAN GO MISSING,

IT'S KIND OF TRAUMATIZING TO
THINK THAT MY BABY COULD, TOO.

♪♪

♪♪

THAT'S A GOOD SESSION.

THIS LITTLE GROVE OF TREES
IS GOING TO BE A GOOD ONE

TO START THE LOG CABIN BUILD,
WHICH I'M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT.

I'VE DREAMT ABOUT A LOG CABIN
MY WHOLE LIFE.

IT JUST KIND OF EMBODIES
EVERYTHING THAT I'M ALL ABOUT,

WHICH IS NATURE, THE WOODS.

TIMBER!

YOU KNOW, I START TO GET,
LIKE, CHOKED UP

WHEN I ACTUALLY THINK ABOUT,
LIKE, COMING HOME TO HER...

IT'S GETTING HOT OUT HERE.

...SMOKE COMING OUT
OF THE CHIMNEY,

AND IT'S WARM INSIDE,
AND SHE, LIKE, GREETS ME

WITH A HUG
AND A HOT COCOA, YOU KNOW?

SO, YEAH, I'M REALLY EXCITED
ABOUT THE LOG CABIN.

THIS ONE, IT'S SMALLER
THAN THE OTHER ONES.

IT DOES HAVE QUITE A LEAN ON IT,

AND THE WIND IS STARTING
TO PICK UP,

SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE
OF EVERY CUT.

YOU KNOW, I'M OUT HERE
PRETTY MUCH ALONE.

YEAH.
SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH IT.

I HOPE SOMETHING DIDN'T
BURN OUT ON IT.

WE ONLY HAVE, LIKE, A FEW WEEKS
TO BUILD THIS ENTIRE CABIN,

AND THAT'S QUITE AN UNDERTAKING.

IT'S GOING TO BE HARD.

YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT
GOING TO BE EASY.

THIS LITTLE DOOHICKEY
IS SUPPOSED TO SPIN.

THIS IS WHAT MAKES THE CHAIN
SAW CUT, AND IT'S NOT SPINNING.

I JUST MADE, LIKE, THE FIRST
COUPLE OF CUTS FOR MY CABIN.

IF I ALREADY
BURNED OUT A CHAINSAW,

THAT'S NOT GOING TO SIT WELL.

YOU KNOW, I'M GOOD WITH AN AX,
BUT I CAN'T DO IN AN HOUR

WHAT THE CHAINSAW CAN DO
IN A FEW MINUTES,

SO I'M GOING TO BE WORKING
EVEN HARDER OUT HERE.

WE'RE JUST GOING TO HIT IT
WITH EVERYTHING WE HAVE,

ALL STOP, NO QUIT.

SOME GOOD LUMBER IN HERE.

♪♪

RIGHT NOW, I'M JUST TRYING TO
GET MY CONEX HOME ALL FIXED UP.

THIS MIRROR, THOUGH,
I DON'T HAVE ANY HOOKS FOR IT,

SO I'M JUST GOING TO
TAPE IT TO THE WALL.

AFTER HAULING HIS
3,000-POUND CONTAINER

200 YARDS UP TO HIS MOUNTAINTOP,

BEAR CAN BEGIN TO MOVE
INTO HIS NEW HOME,

THOUGH IT REMAINS ON
UNLEVEL GROUND.

IT IS STILL PRETTY CROOKED IN HERE, ACTUALLY.

PROBABLY NOT GETTING IT
ENTIRELY STRAIGHT

BECAUSE
IT'S EVEN ON A BIT OF A HILL.

ANOTHER ADVANTAGE TO HAVING
METAL WALLS IS MAGNETS.

BEING MY OWN PLACE,

I ACTUALLY TRY TO GET IT ABOUT
AS FANCY AS I POSSIBLY CAN.

THIS CAN SIDE FOR MANY THINGS
FROM DECOR PIECE,

LIKE A TAPESTRY.

THIS IS SOME NEW AGE WALLPAPER,
AND IT SHOULD MAKE THIS THING

LOOK LIKE FOREST WOOD
INSTEAD OF METAL.

I MEAN, IT LOOKS LIKE WOOD.

IT'S A LITTLE CROOKED
BUT SO IS THE WHOLE

CONEX,
SO CAN'T REALLY CHOOSE THERE.

EVERYBODY SHOULD KNOW BETTER
THAN TO RACE ME.

I FEEL PRETTY EXCITED TO BE

THE FIRST ONE MOVED IN
AND READY FOR WINTER.

THAT'S ONE ADVANTAGE
TO HAVING MY OWN PLACE.

I CAN JUST MAKE IT LOOK
AS EXTREME

AS I WANT TO, HOWEVER I WANT TO.

IF I LIKE, YOU KNOW,
LEOPARD-SKIN THINGS

OR TIGER RUGS,
THAT'S WHAT I GO WITH.

AND WHEN IT GETS KIND OF COOL
AT NIGHT,

THIS THING DOUBLES AS A BLANKET.

MOST OF MY OLD SIBLINGS

HAVE DECIDED TO BUILD
THEIR PLACES FROM SCRATCH,

BUT MY CONTAINER HAS SAVED ME
A WHOLE BUNCH OF TIME.

SO WHILE THEY'RE STILL
NAILING WALLS TOGETHER,

I'M ALREADY GOING TO HAVE
MORE CONTAINERS UP HERE.

TIME TO CLOSE THE CURTAINS
ON EXTREME MANOR

ON MOUNT AWESOME.

SO PUT A BOARD
OVER HERE LIKE THIS.

THIS IS MY PORCH, THOUGH.

I HAVE TO HAVE ROOM
TO WALK AROUND.

THAT'S NOT MUCH OF A PORCH.

THAT'S...WOW.
ALL RIGHT.

HEY, IT'S
A WRAPAROUND, GUYS.

YOU WALK OUT IN THE MORNING
ENJOYING A NICE CUP OF JOE.

I LOVE MY DECK HERE.

AFTER ACQUIRING LUMBER FROM THE SALVAGE YARD,

BIRD ENLISTS THE HELP
OF SIBLINGS GABE AND RAIN

TO INSTALL THE SIDING
ON HER DREAM BIRDHOUSE.

JUST START SLAPPING UP BOARDS.

GABE DOES HAVE A LOT OF PRESSURE TO, LIKE, GET HIS HOUSE DONE,

BUT I'M DEFINITELY GLAD THAT
HE'S TAKING THE TIME TO HELP ME.

AND HE KNOWS THAT
WHEN THE TIME COMES,

I WILL AS WELL, YOU KNOW,
STOP WHAT I'M DOING TO HELP HIM.

I'M GOING TO HAVE TEA
ON MY PORCH EVERY MORNING.

LET'S DO THIS ONE FIRST.

HOLD IT, MERRY.

THAT'S A HOWL.

WAS IT A HOWL?

SOUNDED LIKE A HOWL,
BIRD, HOWL.

THAT'S A HOWL.
OH, THAT'S A PERSON?

IT SOUNDED MAYBE LIKE
NOAH'S PLACE?

YOU KNOW, IN MY FAMILY,
WE HOWL A LOT.

YOU KNOW, IT CAN BE A,
"HEY, WHERE ARE YOU?"

IT CAN BE, LIKE,
A GOOD-TIME CELEBRATION,

BUT IF YOU HEAR, LIKE,
THREE HOWLS, THAT'S DISTRESS.

THAT MEANS, "COME QUICKLY."

YEAH, THAT'S A HOWL.
WE'D BETTER GO.

NO, THAT'S DEFINITELY A HOWL.
YEAH, THAT'S A HOWL.

YOU KNOW, THE HOWL SOUNDS
LIKES IT CAME

FROM NOAH'S LAND UP
ON HIS POINT.

IF SOMETHING HAS GONE WRONG UP
THERE, IF THERE ARE PREDATORS,

YOU KNOW, HIS WIFE
IS HEAVILY PREGNANT.

WE NEED TO GET OVER THERE.

- YO, NOAH!
- NOAH!

-WHAT'S UP?
-HE'S IN HERE.

ARE YOU OKAY?
WHAT'S UP? YEAH.

WE HEARD A HOWL.
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

I'M FINE.
WHERE'S YOUR WIFE?

SHE'S UP AT THE TENT.

WE HEARD A HOWL, MAN.
I HAD 2 HOURS...

A DISTRESS HOWL?
YEAH.

I MEAN,
IT WAS STILL A HOWL.

GET IN.
DID YOU HEAR A GUNSHOT?

- WHY AREN'T YOU WITH HER, NOAH?
- GO! GO! GO!

BECAUSE I'M WORKING,
AND SHE'S RELAXING TODAY.

IT SOUNDED
KIND OF HIGH-PITCHED.

HOW MANY TIMES
DID THE HOWL GO?

TWICE.
WHAT IS SHE DOING?

SHE'S IN THE TENT RELAXING.

DON'T KILL US
GETTING THERE, MAN.

YO, NOAH!
ARE YOU OKAY?

WHAT'S UP? YEAH.

WE HEARD A HOWL.
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

I'M FINE.
WHERE'S YOUR WIFE?

SHE'S UP AT THE TENT.

THE BROWNS HAVE HEARD A HOWL

COMING FROM NOAH'S SIDE
OF THE MOUNTAIN,

AND WITH HIS PREGNANT
WIFE ALONE,

THE SIBLINGS FEAR
SHE COULD BE IN DANGER.

WHAT IS SHE DOING?

SHE'S IN THE TENT
RELAXING LAST I HEARD.

DON'T KILL US
GETTING THERE, MAN.

THREE HOWLS IN A ROW,
QUICK SUCCESSION,

THAT MEANS SOMEONE IS DYING.

STAY.
I GOT THIS.

ARE YOU OKAY?

- YOU DIDN'T HOWL?
I HEAR LAUGHING.

IF I HEAR LAUGHING,
EVERYTHING MUST BE GOOD.

YEAH. OKAY.
THAT GETS...

SHE'S GOOD.
IT WASN'T HER.

YOU KNOW, EVERYBODY'S SAFE.

EVERYTHING'S FINE,
BUT IT'S IMPORTANT RIGHT NOW

TO LOCATE THE HOWL.

WE NEED TO MAKE SURE
IT GOES THE OTHER WAY.

- SO WHO IT WAS IT?
- I MEAN...

I DON'T KNOW.
IT COULD HAVE JUST BEEN COYOTES.

AND A HEART ATTACK.

BAM SPOTTED A BLACK WOLF GOING
ACROSS HIS ROAD THE OTHER DAY

AND SAID IT WAS
A PRETTY GOOD SIZE.

THIS IS
A BIG PIECE OF PROPERTY.

WE MIGHT WANT TO, LIKE...
WE'RE REALLY SPREAD OUT UP HERE.

TIME WILL TELL.
WE'LL KEEP AN EYE OUT.

THE ANIMALS ON THE MOUNTAIN,

THEY'RE GETTING MORE USED
TO OUR PRESENCE.

THE PREDATORS ARE GETTING,
YOU KNOW, MORE AND MORE BOLD.

EVEN SOME OF OUR DETERRENT
METHODS, YOU KNOW,

ARE FAILING AT THIS POINT,

SO WE NEED TO COME UP
WITH SOMETHING.

WE NEED TO FIGURE SOMETHING OUT.

A-HA!

IT'S A VIRTUAL HIGHWAY.

THE ONLY QUESTION IS WHICH WAY
I WANT IT TO GO.

WITH AN UNKNOWN
THREAT ENCROACHING

ON THE BROWNS' MOUNTAIN...

AH, THAT'S FRESHER.

...THE SIBLINGS SUMMON
BROTHER BEAR,

ONE OF THE FAMILY'S
MOST SKILLED TRACKERS,

TO SCOUT THE SURROUNDINGS.

THIS DEER WASN'T JUST GRAZING.

I'D SAY THAT THIS ONE
WAS MOVING FASTER,

SO IT PROBABLY GOT SPOOKED.

ONE THING I ALWAYS TRY TO DO
IS EMBRACE THE ANIMAL.

I THINK LIKE A WOLF.

I THINK LIKE A DEER, A CAT,
WHATEVER IT IS I'M HUNTING,

AND IN THIS CASE,
WITH THEM HAVING HEARD A HOWL,

IT'S DEFINITELY IMPORTANT
TO BE AWARE

OF ALL THE PREDATORS
IN THE BUSH.

A-HA!
OKAY.

THERE'S DEFINITELY A SMALL
PREDATOR HAS BEEN THROUGH HERE.

THESE ARE PAW PRINTS HERE.

THAT'S TOO BIG FOR COYOTE,

I WOULD SAY,
BUT THERE ARE WOLVES OUT HERE.

THE GRAY WOLF HAS BOUNCED BACK FROM ITS ONCE

DIMINISHING POPULATION
IN WASHINGTON STATE.

TYPICALLY LOCATED
IN REMOTE AREAS,

FEEDING ON WILDLIFE
SUCH AS ELK, DEER, AND MOOSE,

THE BROWNS' LIVESTOCK
HAVE DRAWN THEM CLOSER

IN SEARCH OF EASY PREY

PRESENTING A DANGEROUS THREAT
TO THE RANCH.

IF THE HOWL THEY HEARD
WAS ACTUALLY A WOLF,

ONE OF THE ONLY WAYS
YOU COULD ACTUALLY TELL WOULD BE

IF YOU WENT OUT AND YOU
JUST FOLLOWED THE TRAILS.

YOU KEEP GOING UP.
YOU GO ACROSS.

YOU HUNT AND THINK LIKE A WOLF.

JUST GOING AROUND HERE,
JUST AS LITTLE AS I HAVE,

JUST RUBBING AGAINST
THE TREES MARKS THE TERRITORY

SO THEY'LL KNOW
THAT WE'RE HERE,

AND THEY CAN HAVE
ALL THAT OUT THERE,

BUT THIS LITTLE PIECE HERE,
THIS IS OURS.

♪♪

I'M JUST CLEANING OFF THE SNOW SO I CAN GET BACK TO WORK.

IT'S JUST, LIKE, I WOKE UP
THIS MORNING,

AND EVERYTHING WAS JUST COVERED.

DESPITE THE THREAT
TO THEIR HOMESTEAD,

THE BROWNS MUST REMAIN
FOCUSED ON PROGRESSING

THEIR HOUSE BUILDS
WITH A DEEP FREEZE ON ITS WAY.

AND AFTER SIDING HER STRUCTURE,

SISTER BIRD IS TAKING
THE MORNING TO INSTALL WINDOWS.

EVEN THOUGH ALL THE PREDATORS
ARE GETTING BOLD,

AND THEY'RE GETTING CLOSE,
I HAVE TO CONTINUE WORKING.

I MEAN, WINTER IS
PRETTY MUCH HERE,

AND IT'S JUST GETTING COLDER
EVERY DAY.

THIS IS DEFINITELY A HARD JOB
JUST FOR ONE PERSON, YOU KNOW,

BECAUSE TYPICALLY SOMEONE
IS JUST DOWN THERE

GETTING THE WINDOW
READY TO HOIST UP.

SOMEONE IS UP HERE
TYING THE ROPES OFF,

SO YOU JUST HAND IT UP,
BUT JUST BEING ME,

I'M DEFINITELY GOING TO,
YOU KNOW, HOIST IT UP

BECAUSE I DON'T
WANT TO BREAK IT.

TIE YOU LIKE
A CHRISTMAS PRESENT.

THERE ARE A COUPLE OF THINGS
ABOUT WORKING ALONE

THAT I DO LIKE,
LIKE DOING EVERYTHING MY WAY.

IT'S FUN SOMETIMES TO DO IT
THE HARD WAY.

OOH.

OKAY, WINDOW, YOU GOT THIS.

OKAY.

HUH, PIECE OF CAKE.

NOW THAT I HAVE
THE WINDOWS UP HERE,

ALL I HAVE TO DO
IS ACTUALLY INSTALL THEM

AND BRING MY CATS UP

AND SEE WHERE THEY THINK
THEY SHOULD ACTUALLY GO.

SO YEAH, I THINK IT'LL GO RIGHT
ABOUT THERE.

IT'S NOT QUITE DONE,
BUT IT'S GETTING THERE.

♪♪

WANT SOME COOKIES...

I WOULD LOVE SOME COOKIES.
...AND A CUP OF COFFEE?

YOU KNOW ME SO WELL.

I'M TRYING TO GET MATERIAL
FOR OUR CABIN,

BUT I KEEP RUNNING INTO
A BUNCH OF ROTTEN WOOD.

WE NEED A HOME UP HERE.

THERE ARE A LOT OF PREDATORS,
BUT THAT CAN'T STOP US.

WE HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO DO,

BUT AT THIS POINT, EVERYTHING
SEEMS TO BE GOING REALLY SLOW.

TO BE HONEST, I'M STARTING
TO HAVE MY DOUBTS,

ESPECIALLY WITH
EVERYTHING ELSE

WE'RE TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH
ON THE MOUNTAIN.

I JUST DON'T KNOW
IF IT'S FEASIBLE

TO GET A LOG CABIN
WORTH OF LOGS

AND THEN TO BUILD IT
BEFORE THE REAL COLD STARTS.

I DON'T THINK I'M GOING TO BE
ABLE TO BUILD A CABIN

IN THE TIME THAT I NEED.

I'M GOING TO HAVE TO THINK
ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE.

WE HAVEN'T SEEN THE WORST
OF WINTER SOMETHING TELLS ME,

SO WE NEED TO GET IN SOMEWHERE.

I WAS TRYING TO THINK IF THERE
ARE ANY OTHER STRUCTURES

THAT WE MIGHT COULD TURN INTO
SOMEPLACE FOR US TO LIVE, LIKE,

NOAH DID
THE CHICKEN COOP.

I THINK IN THE MEAT LOCKER,
IT'S FULL OF MEAT, YOU KNOW?

YEAH, THAT'S WHERE
EVERYBODY'S FOOD IS.

I THOUGHT ABOUT THE BARN,
YOU KNOW, CLOSING A STALL

AND MAYBE THAT HAYLOFT.

WHAT KIND OF FURNITURE
WOULD WE PUT UP THERE?

I DON'T KNOW.

IS IT KIND OF LIKE A STUDIO
APARTMENT KIND OF THING?

I GUESS.
AND WE CAN, LIKE, FIT, LIKE...

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT IS.

CAN WE PUT A BATHROOM UP THERE?
YEAH.

WE CAN DRAIN IT RIGHT DOWN
INTO BRUTUS' PEN.

HE'D LOVE THAT.
NO.

WE'LL PROBABLY HAVE TO GO
WITH THE OUTHOUSE.

WE COULD
PUT IN A SINK, THOUGH.

IT WOULD SMELL LIKE A BARN.

YEAH.
IT'D BE COLD.

IT'D BE NOISY.

I THINK
ONCE WE CLOSE IT UP,

YOU MIGHT NOT EVEN NOTICE
THAT YOU'RE IN A BARN.

WHAT ABOUT
THE RATS, THOUGH?

ONCE WE SEAL IT,
IT WOULD HELP AGAINST THE RATS.

THE MAIN UPSIDE I SEE
IS IT GIVES A LITTLE

WHILE THAT WE DON'T HAVE
TO WORRY ABOUT A LOG CABIN.

YEAH.

YOU KNOW, IT WOULD GIVE US TIME
TO REALLY PLAN

AND MAKE THE DREAM HOME.

THERE ARE A FEW DRAWBACKS
TO LIVING IN THE BARN.

THE PEACOCKS KIND OF THINK
EVERYWHERE IS AN OUTHOUSE,

BUT OTHER THAN, YOU KNOW,
SOUNDS AND SMELLS,

LIKE, I THINK THE HAYLOFT
IS GOING TO BE GREAT.

SO WHAT DO YOU THINK,
OPERATION HAYLOFT A GO?

IT'S A GO.

OKAY.

THIS IS BAMBI, MA'AM, MAMA, COCO, CRAZY, NEO/NEMO,

LOLLIPOP, HOWARD,
SWEETHEART, AND JOE.

WHEW, I THOUGHT THERE
WAS A GOAT MISSING,

AND I WAS GOING TO HAVE
A HEART ATTACK.

LATER THAT DAY,
AFTER THE DISCOVERY

THAT ONE OF THEIR PEACOCKS
IS MISSING,

SISTERS BIRD AND RAIN SCOUR THE
BARN AREA SEARCHING FOR SIGNS.

THERE ARE SOME TRACKS OVER HERE.

THIS IS A PAW PRINT.

A PAW PRINT?

IT'S HEAVY, WHATEVER IT IS.

BIRD AND I ARE JUST LOOKING
AROUND TRYING TO REALLY ASSESS

WHERE ALL THE PREDATORS ARE
AND WHERE ALL THEY'RE TRAVELING

BECAUSE AFTER WE HEARD
THE HOWL AND AFTER,

LIKE, ONE OF THE PEACOCKS
WENT MISSING.

ALL OF THAT PACKED IN TOGETHER
IS JUST REALLY WORRISOME,

AND IT'S SOMETHING
THAT YOU DEFINITELY HAVE

TO KEEP AN EYE ON.

THERE'S A PEACOCK TRAIL
OVER HERE.

OH, THERE ARE FEATHERS HERE.

RAIN.
HUH?

IT LOOKS LIKE
THERE'S BLOOD OVER HERE.

BLOOD?
THAT'S NOT A GOOD SIGN.

I MEAN, THAT MEANS SOMETHING
DEFINITELY HAPPENED

TO THE PEACOCK,
AND THAT MEANS

THAT THE PREDATORS
ARE GETTING REALLY CLOSE.

HOW FRESH IS IT, THOUGH?

I MEAN, IT'S MIXED WITH THE
SNOW, SO IT'S HARD TO TELL.

KNOWING THAT ONE OF OUR ANIMALS
ACTUALLY WAS KILLED,

THAT MAKES THE WHOLE
PREDATOR THREAT EVEN MORE REAL.

IT'S MY RESPONSIBILITY TO KEEP
AN EYE ON ALL THE ANIMALS,

AND I WOULD PROTECT THEM
WITH MY LIFE.

-COMING UP...

BIRD IS CALLED INTO ACTION.

THIS IS RIGHT BEHIND THE BARN.

IT MAKES IT SERIOUS.

SOME SORT OF PREDATOR IS GOING
AROUND TAKING THE LIVESTOCK.

THE BROWNS HAVE DISCOVERED LIVESTOCK REMAINS

NEAR THEIR BARN SITE.

IT LOOKS LIKE
THERE'S BLOOD OVER HERE.

AND THE SIBLINGS
ARE ON HIGH ALERT,

MONITORING THE PERIMETER
OF THEIR PROPERTY.

WHEN WE LEFT
THE BIG BEAR COUNTRY,

WE DIDN'T REALLY THINK THAT,
YOU KNOW,

WE WERE GOING TO HAVE
PROBLEMS LIKE THIS.

THE WOLVES DOWN HERE, THEY'RE
NOT THAT AFRAID OF HUMANS,

AND IT DEFINITELY MAKES THEM
MORE OF A THREAT.

RAIN AND I WERE
ACTUALLY WALKING,

AND WE NOTICED WHAT
LOOKED LIKE DOG PRINTS,

AND WE'RE LIKE, "WHY?"

DOGS DON'T HAVE
TEARDROP PRINTS, THOUGH.

NO. THERE WEREN'T
ANY DOGS UP HERE,

SO WE'RE THINKING IT
COULD HAVE BEEN WOLF.

GOOD LORD.

THEY COULD DEVASTATE US
IN A NIGHT,

AND THIS TIME OF YEAR,
THEY'RE DOWN LOW,

AND THEY'RE LOOKING FOR
ABOUT ANYTHING.

RIGHT.

YOU KNOW HOW FORMIDABLE
THEY ARE.

AND WE HAVE A LOT OF ANIMALS

WHO ARE GOING TO HAVE
BABIES SOON,

AND THEY'RE JUST GOING TO KEEP
COMING CLOSER AND CLOSER.

YEAH.
WE'VE LIVED AROUND WOLVES,

AND WE LEARNED A LONG TIME AGO
THAT WE RESPECT THEM GREATLY,

BUT OUR PACK IS MEANER.

WE'RE A LITTLE BIT
MORE DETERMINED, I THINK.

WOLVES HERE
ARE PROBLEM SOLVERS.

THEY'RE SO GOOD.
THEY'RE SO STEALTHY.

THEY WALK 10 FOOT FROM YOU,
AND YOU WON'T KNOW IT.

THEY'VE GOT ONE GUY
THAT RUNS POINT.

THEY'VE GOT ONE GUY
THAT SCOUTS.

THEY'VE GOT ONE GUY THAT
GETS TO GET THE NECK SPLIT.

THEY'VE GOT ANOTHER GUY
THAT'S GOING TO COME

IN AND HIT THE SIDE.

THEY WILL AMBUSH YOU.

OH, MY LORD, HAVE MERCY.

IF THE WOLVES
JUST GET USED TO COMING

AND SNACKING ON OUR ANIMALS,
IT'S NOT GOOD FOR THE RANCH,

AND SO WE JUST HAVE TO LET
THEM KNOW THIS IS OUR TERRITORY.

WE'RE OUR OWN WOLF PACK,
AND THEY'RE NOT ALLOWED.

KEEP YOUR EYE TO THE GROUND
TO LOOK FOR TRACKS.

WE NEED TO LET THEM KNOW
THAT WE'RE HERE ALL THE TIME.

YEAH.

THERE'S NOT AN OPENING
THEY CAN COME IN ON.

BE VIGILANT.

SNIFFING AROUND,

I'M LIKE,
"THIS IS MY BARN NOW!"

I THINK AS SOON AS YOU
TELL SOMEONE

THAT YOU'RE GOING TO LIVE
IN THE HAYLOFT OF THE BARN,

YOU KNOW, ESPECIALLY WITH SOME
OF MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS,

THERE ARE SOME FUNNY LOOKS.

IT'S LIKE,
"YOU'RE GOING TO WHAT?"

I THINK YOU'RE TOO CLUMSY
TO LIVE IN THE HAYLOFT.

I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO END UP
FALLING OFF THIS END,

FALLING OFF THE OTHER END,

FALLING DOWN THE LADDER
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.

THE SMELLS GOING TO DRIVE
YOU CRAZY.

YEAH.
I LIKE THAT SMELL.

BUT THEN, LIKE,
ONCE YOU EXPLAIN IT,

TO BE ABLE TO WAKE UP
IN THE MORNING

AND RAQUELL BE THERE,
AND THEN THROUGHOUT THE DAY,

RAQUELL BE THERE
AND THEN TO SAY, "GOOD NIGHT,"

THAT'S THE NEXT STEP
IN OUR RELATIONSHIP,

AND I THINK IT'S GOING
TO BE A LIFE-CHANGER.

CATCH THIS ROPE.

AS NICE AS THE BARN IS,
IT STILL GETS COLD AT NIGHT.

I WANT RAQUELL TO BE
COMFORTABLE.

SHE'S ALREADY MOVING
INTO A BARN WITH ME.

I WANT HER TO BE AT LEAST WARM.

WE GOT A WOODSTOVE FROM IN TOWN,
AND IT'S THE PERFECT WOODSTOVE.

LIKE, IT'S GOING TO HEAT THE
HAYLOFT LIKE NOTHING ELSE WOULD.

IF I CAN'T GET THE WOODSTOVE
UP THERE, RAQUELL

AND I AREN'T GOING
TO BE ABLE TO MOVE IN,

AND THAT'S THE ONE THING THAT
WE ABSOLUTELY HAD TO HAVE

IS A HEAT SOURCE.

GUYS, THIS REMINDS ME OF, LIKE,
THE INTEGRITY

WHEN WE WOULD, LIKE,
GET STUFF UP ON THE ROOF.

WE WERE JUST TALKING
ABOUT THAT.

REALLY?
YEAH.

Bam Bam:GROWING UP ON BOATS
AND THE WAY THAT WE DID

AND JUST WORKING AS MANY JOBS

AS WE HAVE TOGETHER
REALLY INSTILLED US THE FACT

THAT YOU HAVE TO RELY
ON THE PERSON NEXT TO YOU.

ALRIGHT, GUYS.
WE'RE HOME.

BROWNTOWN DEAD AHEAD.

AND OUR WHOLE LIFE,
WE'VE HAD DIFFERENT JOBS.

WE'VE WORKED VERY SYMBIOTIC,

WHEREAS A LOT OF TIMES, WE DON'T
HAVE TO TALK TO EACH OTHER.

WE JUST KNOW WHAT THE OTHER
PERSON IS GOING TO DO.

KEEP IT FROM SLIDING
INTO THE BOW.

- WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!
- I'M SLIPPING.

JUST BECAUSE
YOU'RE NOT ON THE WATER

DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN'T APPLY
THE SAME SYSTEM

TO DOING SOMETHING ELSE.

NOW I THINK THAT THAT REALLY
FALLS INTO PLACE

WITH EVERYTHING IN LIFE.

- PUSH IT.
- GOOD! - THAT'S IT.

GUYS, LET'S PUT THE ROPE
ON THE OTHER SIDE

OF THE TWO-BY-FOUR CLOSER
TO THE LADDER,

AND IF Y'ALL KEEP THE TENSION
OFF AS WE PULL IT UP,

I CAN WALK IT UP THE LADDER.

LET'S GO.
IT'S HEAVY.

IS IT OFF THE GROUND AT ALL?

IT'S NOT OFF THE GROUND?
NOPE.

I DON'T THINK IT'S OFF
THE GROUND.

PULL.

PULL.

LOOKING AT IT, I'M LIKE, "OH, IT'S A PRETTY SMALL WOODSTOVE,"

BUT LIFTING IT, LIKE,
STRAIGHT UP, IT'S...

IT WEIGHS A LOT.

PULL.

NOW HOLD.

ALL RIGHT.

PULL.

I'M PULLING.
NO, YOU'RE NOT.

TURN IT. HOLD ON.
STOP. STOP.

.
CAN YOU HOLD THAT?

I DON'T KNOW.

I'M JUST GOING TO
TURN IT SIDEWAYS...

I WON'T BE ABLE TO HOLD IT
THIS LONG.

...AND IT'S GOING TO SLIDE UP.
WE NEED TO GET IT UP HERE.

HOLD ON.

GUYS, WHY DON'T WE
JUST PUSH IT UP?

WE WERE DOING REALLY GOOD.
'CAUSE IT'S CAUGHT.

THE STOVE KEEPS GETTING CAUGHT ON THE LEDGE OF THE HAYLOFT,

AND IF THIS FALLS ON SOMEBODY
OR HITS BRUTUS,

IT'S GETTING DANGEROUS.

WE HAVE TO GET IT
THE REST OF THE WAY UP.

STOP. STOP.
YOU'RE MESSING UP THE HANDLE.

LET IT DOWN A LITTLE BIT
SO I CAN PULL IT OUT.

IT'S GOING TO FALL.

DID SOMEONE JUST LET GO?

STOP. STOP.
YOU'RE MESSING UP THE HANDLE.

LET IT DOWN A LITTLE BIT
SO I CAN PULL IT OUT.

IT'S GOING TO FALL.

DESPITE AN INCREASING
THREAT FROM PREDATORS

ON THE BROWNS' RANCH,
THE SIBLINGS ARE WORKING

TO BUILD THEIR FIRST EVER
INDIVIDUAL HOMESITES.

GET UP HERE, BAM.
GET UP HERE.

BUT AS THE BROWNS COME TOGETHER TO HELP GABE INTO THE BARN LOFT,

HIS HEAT STOVE HAS PROVED
A DIFFICULT TASK.

HANG ON, GUYS.
HANG ON.

MY FOREARMS CAN'T
TAKE IT ANYMORE OF THIS.

WE'RE GOING TO
HAVE TO LET IT DOWN.

IT'S CAUGHT ON THE DOOR.
IT'S CAUGHT ON THE DOOR.

LET IT DOWN.
LET IT DOWN?!

YEAH.
ALL RIGHT. FINE.

HOLD ON.
LOWER IT DOWN.

WE'RE ALL JUST, LIKE, TAXING OUR BODIES TO THE LIMIT.

FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION,
BUT AT THIS POINT,

I JUST DON'T KNOW HOW WE'RE
GOING TO GET IT UP HERE.

SO I JUST
CHANGED THE WAY IT'S TIED.

THERE'S NO EDGE TO CATCH
ON ANYTHING

AS WE TRY TO GO UP THERE.

IT SHOULD BE A LITTLE BIT EASIER
TO PULL IT UP WITH THAT.

ALL RIGHT.
ARE WE READY?

LET'S DO THIS.

I KNOW IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT
FOR GABEY TO MAKE THIS SOMEWHERE

THAT RAQUELL WANTS TO LIVE,
THAT SHE FEELS COMFORTABLE,

SO IT'S DEFINITELY
IMPORTANT FOR HIM

TO MAKE IT
AS COZY AS POSSIBLE.

ONE, TWO, THREE, NOW!
AND GO.

PULL.
IT'S NOT...

YES, IT IS. PULL.
STOP.

GUYS, CAN YOU ALL TIE
YOUR ALL'S OFF TO SOMETHING?

THERE ISN'T ANYTHING.
OVER THERE ON MY LEFT.

YOU KNOW, GETTING UP THIS FAR
HAS TAKEN A LOT OUT OF EVERYONE.

WE NEED TO GET IT TIED OFF SO WE
CAN TAKE A LITTLE PRESSURE OFF.

SLOW AND STEADY IS THE ONLY WAY
WE'RE GOING TO WIN THIS RACE.

PULL!
WE'RE TRYING.

PULL!

PULL!

IT'S UP.
WHOO!

YES!
SWEET VICTORY!

IT'S GOING TO BE A HOT TIME
IN THE OLD TOWN TONIGHT!

I THINK THE HAYLOFT
IS LOOKING UP.

IT'S GOING TO GET
NICE AND TOASTY.

WE HAVE A FEW WALLS TO SEAL IN,

BUT WE'VE GOT
THAT STOVE UP THERE,

AND IT FEELS REALLY GOOD.
THANKS, GUYS.

I WOULD HAVE NEVER GOTTEN
THIS UP WITHOUT Y'ALL.

NO, DEFINITELY.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I THINK I JUST GAVE HIM HIS HOUSEWARMING GIFT,

WAS THE BLOOD AND SWEAT
MINUS THE TEARS.

I STILL THINK IT'S A CRAZY IDEA
TO LIVE IN A HAYLOFT,

BUT TO EACH HIS OWN.

ONE STEP CLOSER TO HAVING
A HOUSE OR A HAYLOFT.

♪♪

WHAT DO YOU THINK
OF THE NEW HOUSE?

NEEDS A LITTLE BIT
OF WORK STILL.

I WAS ACTUALLY THINKING
OF PUTTING, LIKE,

LITTLE RAMPS IN THE CEILING.

SO YOU ALL CAN, LIKE,
CLIMB UP THERE.

THE THOUGHT OF LIVING ALONE,

I'M DEFINITELY WARMING UP
TO THE IDEA.

I'M NOT COMPLETELY ALONE.
I HAVE TONS OF CATS.

IT'S MY RESPONSIBILITY
TO MAKE SURE THEY'RE SAFE

BECAUSE THERE ARE A LOT
OF PREDATORS DOWN HERE

THAT THEY'RE NOT USED TO.

I HAVE SOME SACKS,
BUT I'M THINKING

THIS WOULD BE PERFECT FOR,
LIKE, A BIRD'S NEST.

I ACTUALLY HAVE SEVEN CATS.

I HAVE KAT WITH A K,
VALKYRIE.

I HAVE GYPSY.

I HAVE CYBERSPACE.
I HAVE SCI-FI.

I HAVE BYE-BYE,
AND I HAVE FRISKIES.

YOU KNOW, THIS IS BASICALLY
HOW WE WOULD MAKE BEDS

BACK IN ALASKA.

I KNOW YOU REMEMBER,
BUT WE'D USE MOSS.

AW!
YOU SEEM TO LIKE IT.

FOR WASHINGTON AND THIS LAND
TO FEEL LIKE HOME,

IT HAS TO BE HOME
FOR THE CATS, TOO.

AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE
THEY CAN'T GET OUT

UNLESS I WANT THEM OUT.

VALKYRIE, COME HERE.

OOH, BABY.

DEFINITELY GOT TO SEAL...
VALKYRIE, YOU COME BACK!

JUST DON'T GO OUTSIDE.

YOU CAN STAY DOWN THERE
AND LOOK AROUND, BUT DON'T EXIT.

♪♪

WHAT'S FOR BREAKFAST?

ANY EXCUSE TO SHOOT,
I'M IN FOR IT.

YEAH.

WITH THE INCREASING NUMBER OF WOLVES ON THE BROWNS' MOUNTAIN,

NOAH AND HIS WIFE,
RHAIN ALISHA,

WORK ON THEIR BUSH
SAFETY SKILLS.

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE
I'VE PRACTICED MY QUICK DRAW...

YEAH.
...LIKE, A LONG, LONG TIME.

WITH EVERYTHING GOING ON,
IT'S A GOOD TIME

TO BE ABLE TO PRACTICE
QUICK DRAW AND AIMING.

YOU CARRY SOMETHING
POWERFUL ENOUGH

TO STOP THE LARGEST PREDATOR
THAT YOU MIGHT ENCOUNTER.

THAT'S WHY I CARRY
MY .357 MAGNUM.

SO IT'S DEFINITELY GOING TO WORK
FOR ANYTHING

I COME ACROSS
IN THE WASHINGTON BUSH.

SO I'M CALLING FOR YOU.

I'LL CALL "DRAW"
WHEN YOU'RE READY.

AND DRAW.

WHAT?

AND NOW WE'RE BOTH DEAD,
BUT I HAVE A STICK,

SO I'LL BEAT IT TO DEATH.

DRAW.

I SAW YOUR HAND
NEARLY DROP YOUR GUN.

IT ACTUALLY CAUGHT.
THE GLOVES CAUGHT.

OKAY.
I SAW THAT.

THAT WAS REALLY BAD.

I'M EXTREMELY CONFIDENT
WITH MY PISTOL,

BUT QUICK DRAW IS SOMETHING
THAT ALWAYS TAKES MORE PRACTICE.

I'M PROBABLY GOING TO GO
HAMMER BACK THIS TIME.

OKAY. IT'S KIND OF
OLD WESTERN STYLE.

DRAW.

OOH, WAY OFF.

THAT WAS MISERABLE.

IF YOU QUIT PRACTICING,
YOU'LL GET RUSTY.

SO IT'S GOOD TO ALWAYS
KEEP YOUR SKILLS TONED.

AND DRAW.
SEE, YOU'RE NOT EVEN READY.

AND DRAW.

MUCH BETTER!

SEE, I CAN SEE IT.

IT'S OFF TO THE LEFT
RIGHT THERE.

YEAH.

RHAIN MARRIED ME KNOWING
THAT I WAS THE TYPE OF GUY

THAT'S PREPARED FOR ANYTHING.
ALL RIGHT?

BEFORE WE WERE EVEN ENGAGED,
WE STOOD OFF AGAINST A GRIZZLY.

DRAW.

THAT'S EFFECTIVE.

IN MY VOWS, I PROMISED
THAT I WOULD PROTECT HER

AND OUR CHILDREN
AGAINST ANYTHING.

IT'S JUST WHO I AM.

I'M THE PROTECTOR.

THAT'S EFFECTIVE!

I LIKE THAT.

YEAH. I'M DEFINITELY
HAPPY WITH IT.

♪♪

ONE, TWO, THREE!

OH, YOU'RE WAY DEAD, MAN.
OH!

YOU'RE JUST TOO SLOW.
I WOUNDED YOU.

AFTER SUCCESSFULLY LIFTING THE STOVE INTO THE HAYLOFT,

GABE AND HIS SIBLINGS
WILL INSTALL THE PIPING

THROUGH THE ROOF USING
THEIR TRUSTED BUSH TECHNIQUE.

I FIGURED WE'LL YOU, YOU KNOW,
TRIED-AND-TRUE OLD FASHION.

WE'LL JUST SHOOT A HOLE
FOR WHERE WE PUT IT.

DUCK FOR COVER.

HOLD YOUR EARS...
YEAH.

...AND YOUR NOSE,
AND HERE WE GOES.

STEP RIGHT UP, BIRDY.

YOU'RE THE NEXT CONTESTANT AND
SHOOT A HOLE THROUGH THE ROOF.

I GOT IT.

YOU KNOW, I THINK A GUN IS
A LOT MORE EFFICIENT

THAN A DRILL, YOU KNOW?

IT'S ONE AND DONE.
YOU JUST LINE UP.

YOU SHOOT IT,
AND THERE'S A HOLE.

AH.
GET READY TO TAKE COVER.

OKAY.
DO I LOOK ABOUT EVEN?

YOU LOOK STRAIGHT ON.

WE READY?
READY.

TAKE YOUR TIME, BIRD.

BULL'S-EYE!
IT'S A LITTLE BIT TO THE RIGHT.

AH, IT'S CLOSE ENOUGH.

RAQUELL HAS TO LIKE IT.

YOU KNOW, I DON'T WANT
TO LIVE SOMEWHERE

THAT SHE'S NOT COMFORTABLE.

EVEN THOUGH IT'S A HAYLOFT
IN A BARN,

IT'S OUR FIRST HOME TOGETHER.

HOW'S IT COMING?
IT'S GETTING THERE.

IT'S ACTUALLY STARTING
TO RESEMBLE A HOME UP HERE.

IT'S A BIG DEAL, YOU KNOW, ESPECIALLY TO ME.

I KNOW IT'S GOING TO BE
A BIG DEAL TO HER.

I THINK IT'S GOING TO BE GOOD.

MOMENT OF TRUTH, THOUGH, IS WHEN
RAQUELL SETS HER PEEPERS ON IT.

NEXT TIME,
I GET TO SHOOT THE HOLE.

NEXT TIME,
YOU BRING YOUR OWN GUN.

COLEY!

COLEY, YOU'RE HERE!
NOAH!

IT'S COLEY!

LAST NIGHT WHEN WE CAME IN

AND I WENT TO GO TAKE CARE
OF THE BATTERY BANK,

AND RHAIN ALISHA WENT INSIDE,
AND ALL OF A SUDDEN,

I HEARD HER SCREAM
THAT COLEY IS BACK.

LOOKIT HOW SKINNY HE IS.

I KNOW!
YOU WOULD BE, TOO.

THIS WAS THE FAT ONE.

HE SURVIVED ALL ON HIS OWN, AND HE JUST CAME HOME.

IT'S A MIRACLE.

FOR 2 1/2 WEEKS, I TOLD YOU,
"HE'LL BE BACK. HE'S FINE."

JUST ADMIT IT.
YOU MISSED HIM.

WHAT DO YOU THINK, CYBER?

NEEDS A LITTLE BIT OF WORK
STILL.

WANT TO SEE THE VIEW?

NICE, HUH?

THE BROWNS ARE CONTINUING THEIR RACE AGAINST WINTER,

BUILDING UP THEIR FIRST-EVER
INDIVIDUAL HOMES,

BUT FOR BROTHER GABE,
HIS NEWLY CONSTRUCTED ROOM

INSIDE THE BARN STILL REQUIRES
THE APPROVAL OF HIS FUTURE WIFE.

SO THERE'S BEEN A LITTLE BIT MORE DONE TO IT.

YOU KNOW, RAQUELL WAS
A LITTLE SKEPTICAL

WHEN I MENTIONED THE HAYLOFT.

I'M A LITTLE ANXIOUS
TO KIND OF SHOW IT TO HER,

EVERYTHING
I'VE GOTTEN DONE TO IT.

IT'S STILL NOT READY, OKAY?
IT'S A WORK IN PROGRESS.

OKAY.
OKAY. COME ON UP.

OKAY.

RAQUELL HAS TO LIKE IT,
YOU KNOW?

I DON'T WANT TO LIVE SOMEWHERE
THAT SHE'S NOT COMFORTABLE.

I JUST WANT THIS TO BE GOOD.

I WANT THIS TO BE A NICE
FIRST HOME FOR BOTH OF US.

DON'T LOOK. DON'T LOOK.
DON'T LOOK.

OKAY.
I'M NOT LOOKING.

AND OPEN.

WOW!
OH, MY GOODNESS.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I'M SPEECHLESS.

FIRST, WE HAVE THIS COUNTER.

I FIGURE THIS IS GOING TO BE
GOOD FOR, LIKE, PREPPING MEALS.

YEAH.

EVENTUALLY, I'M GOING TO PUT
A SINK IN HERE,

AND THEN WE'LL BE ABLE TO
JUST WASH ALL OUR DISHES HERE.

OKAY.
HAVE THE STOVE RIGHT HERE,

AND BEST PART,
THIS PUPPY OPENS...

OKAY.

...WINTER WONDERLAND.

WHAT A VIEW!

RIGHT?
DO YOU KNOW MY FAVORITE PART?

WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE PART?
YOU'RE HERE.

GOING INTO THE HAYLOFT

FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME
REALLY SURPRISED ME.

HE PUT SO MUCH WORK
INTO MAKING IT LOOK LIKE A HOME.

IT DEFINITELY WARMS MY HEART
TO KNOW

HE'LL PUT THE EXTRA MILE
DOING THAT FOR US.

IT'S OUR FIRST HOME.
I KNOW.

ARE YOU EXCITED?

I'M REALLY EXCITED.

I'M VERY EXCITED
THAT YOU'RE EXCITED.

YEAH?
I LOVE IT.

YES!
RAQUELL LIKES THE HAYLOFT.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

YEAH, WE DID IT.
SHE LOVES THE HAYLOFT.

LIKE, IT'S COMFORTABLE.

IT'S EVERYTHING THAT WE WANTED,
AND IT'S OUR FIRST HOME.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE REST
OF THE TENANTS IN THE BUILDING,

YOU KNOW, SHARING
LIVING QUARTERS WITH BRUTUS?

I MEAN, THE SMELL DOESN'T REALLY
COME UP HERE,

AND IF WE GET A LOT OF CANDLES
GOING, COOKING AND STUFF,

I THINK IT WOULD SMELL LIKE HOME
RATHER THAN A BARN.

AH, YEAH.
WE'LL GET THERE.

♪♪

LET'S GO DO A PERIMETER SEARCH.

I HATE Y'ALL'S SENSE
OF DIRECTION.

I CHOOSE THE DEEPEST SNOW.

WITH PREDATORS THREATENING THE SAFETY OF THE BROWNS

AND THEIR LIVESTOCK,

GABE, BIRD AND RAIN CONDUCT
A LARGER PERIMETER

SWEEP TO HELP DETERMINE

WHERE THE PREDATORS
COULD BE HEADED NEXT.

I THINK THIS IS ABOUT THE END
OF OUR PROPERTY, ACTUALLY.

SAME.

I THINK IT GOES JUST OVER THERE,
AND THEN THAT'S THE END OF IT.

EVEN THOUGH WE'RE REALLY BUSY
WITH A LOT OF THINGS

ON THE RANCH,
IT'S STILL IMPORTANT

TO TAKE THE TIME
TO DO A PERIMETER SEARCH.

YOU JUST WANT TO NOT ONLY
MAKE SURE

THAT THEY'RE NOT
GETTING TOO CLOSE,

BUT YOU ALSO WANT
TO PUT YOUR MARK THERE.

IT'S THAT WHOLE-FOOT PAW.

WOW.
LOOK, THERE'S ANOTHER TRAIL.

YEP. THIS LOOKS LIKE A VERY
HIGH-ACTIVITY AREA.

THIS GIANT RIDGE UP HERE, WE NAMED IT WOLF RIDGE.

THIS IS WHERE WE'VE SEEN
A LOT OF SIGN OF WOLVES,

AND I THINK THEY'RE UP HERE

BECAUSE THEY CAN SURVEY
ALL THE TERRITORY.

THEIR HOWL CARRIES IN THE WIND.

THIS IS ADEQUATELY
NAMED WOLF RIDGE.

I JUST THINK IF WE MAKE A ROUND
FROM DOWN THERE,

LOOP BACK AROUND UP
TOWARD NOAH'S PLACE

AND THEN BACK DOWN,
THAT'S A PRETTY GOOD CIRCLE.

- YEAH.
- IT IS.

SO IF WE JUST WALK THAT
EVERY DAY.

THIS IS A GOOD AREA TO PATROL.
WELL, WHAT DO YOU THINK?

YOU WANT TO TARGET PRACTICE
ON THE TREE?

YOU KNOW, IT'S IMPORTANT WE LET
ALL THE PREDATORS KNOW

NORTH STAR
RANCH IS OUR PROPERTY,

AND THE MOUNTAIN BELONGS
TO THE BROWNS NOW.

WE'RE A APEX PREDATOR
ON THIS MOUNTAIN,

AND WE JUST NEED
TO LET THEM KNOW THAT.

SHOOT IT A LITTLE BIT
OVER EVERYTHING,

"YEP, WE'RE HERE," YOU KNOW?

WE'RE HERE.
THERE'S A PRESENCE HERE.

YOU KNOW, I GOT TO ADMIT,
LIVING THE WAY WE DO,

I GUESS A LOT OF PEOPLE
WOULD CONSIDER IT A HARD LIFE.

THE HARDER IT GETS, THE CLOSER
YOU COME TO LOSING IT,

AND YOU HAVE TO FIGHT
SO HARD FOR IT,

IT ALWAYS MAKES IT BETTER.

IT MAKES IT WORTHWHILE.

IT'S LIKE, "WATCH OUT,
ANY PREDATORS IN THE WOODS.

I AM BACK."

OH, I LOVE GUNS!

FEEL COOL, GABE?
YOU LOOKED COOL.

I COULD GIVE YOU THAT.

EVEN AS THE GUYS START
BRANCHING OFF

AND SPREADING OUT AND GETTING
THEIR OWN LIVES GOING ON,

I STILL THINK THE UNITY OF THE
PACK THAT THEY'VE ALWAYS HAD,

IT'S VITAL
FOR THE FUTURE, I THINK.

FIRE.
YEAH.

IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US
TO JUST STAY TOGETHER

AND REMEMBER THAT, LIKE,

WE CAN OVERCOME
ANYTHING THAT'S THROWN AT US.

THE DREAM IS TO LIVE FREE
AND TO LIVE WILD.

YOU HAVE TO HAVE COURAGE
AND STAND UP TALL.

ON THE NEXT EPISODE
OF "ALASKAN BUSH PEOPLE"...

YEAH!

IT'S NOT REALLY TURNING,
BUT I SEE IT!

OH, MAN!

...AS THE BROWN FAMILY FORTIFIES THEIR RANCH...

EACH STEP WE GET CLOSER
TO DINNER.

...FATHER BILLY AND MOTHER AMI

DECIDE IT'S TIME
TO CELEBRATE BROWN STYLE.

YODELODA, YODELAYHEE,
YODELAYHEEHOO.

-AND THE FAMILY DREAM
GROWS BRIGHTER...

THEY WALK IN THAT BARN.
THEY'RE JUST GOING TO FALL DOWN.

...AS THE WOLF PACK HONORS
THEIR BOND.

WHAT FAITH WILL DO FOR EVERYONE,
GOD WILL GIVE BACK,

THEN I'M NOT EVEN SITTING HERE.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON.
I LOVED IT.

THANK YOU.
