In "Alone's" coldest location ever,

ten participants fight to survive the arctic.

- The arctic is one of the most physically demanding

places on earth. - So freakin' cold right now.

Battling sub-zero temperatures...

- This climate's harsh. It's extreme.

It's mean. It's got teeth. - Get caught out here

in a whiteout, and you're in trouble.

Vicious predators...

- Just heard something big moving back there.

Me against the wolverine right now.

And isolation.

- There's nothing to fill that void.

It's just you left alone with your thoughts.

How long will they endure?

House is on fire.

- I'm scared but I don't want to tap.

- This is the most unforgiving landscape I've ever seen.

The last one standing wins.

- This environment will strip away everything

and anything you thought you had.

- We're all getting dropped off in one of the most

cold and unforgiving places on Earth.

It's happening!

I'm alone!

- The arctic is freakin' extreme--

negative 40 wind chill, five hours a day of sunlight.

It's the type of environment

where one mistake could be deadly.

- Uh, there they go.

- This is absolutely nuts.

- We're getting this opportunity

to go somewhere people haven't been before.

It's a rough, ragged, jagged place.

- The landscape is so vast you can just tell

there's just a lot of bounty,

but a lot of scarcity there, too.

- There's lots of resources but once the snow hits

and the temperatures are starting to dip,

that's gonna go away real quick.

- The predators are a serious concern.

They're just ferocious animals here in the arctic.

- Whoa.

The arctic is the top of the world.

There's lynx, moose, grizzly bears, wolverines.

It's dangerous.

Look at that.

Time to grow a pair, boys and girls.

Let's get to work.

Just like that, you're alone.

Tell you what.

As soon as that helicopter leaves...

it gets quiet.

Got to find me a little place where I can just

set up something for the night.

Okay, what the?

They forget something?

They did!

I forgot something! My hat!

Yeah, they brought it back to me.

Canadians. Thank you.

Ah, I can't-- I can't guarantee I would have

got the same appreciation if I was back home.

That's how you start a fire.

I am a self defense instructor

and I'm doing this because I'm seizing an opportunity

that's completely in my wheelhouse.

A lot of people have a load of formal training.

They go to these bushcraft schools,

but for me, it was something that was always just kind of

fed to me slowly throughout my life

from my great-grandfather, grandfather, father--

all hunted, trapped, fished and worked

with very primitive skill sets.

This is something that resonates in my bloodline.

Always be mindful of where you set your tools.

You lose them, you lose the game.

Why am I doing this? Respect?

Absolutely. Money?

Absolutely. And that's because

I grew up in a environment where this sort of

living practices were just out of necessity.

As a kid, my family was homeless.

We've lived in a van in a mall parking lot.

My father stole potatoes to feed us in the van.

So now that I have my family,

I better be doing those things that are going to dictate

the future of my family's well-being.

My son Tristan's only 2 1/2 years old...

Whoo-hoo!

And I'm gonna be gone

longer than my daughter has been alive.

The biggest thing I'm gonna miss is the time.

To my loved ones, when I say good-bye,

I'll be telling them I love them,

but it won't be good-bye.

It's just gonna be for a little while,

and I know that when I come back,

I'm bringing home the win.

Fortunate to be put atop this

large rock formation.

So that gives me a pretty nice field of view

to kind of scout from.

Getting food right away is extremely important,

so I'm going to hunt the first few days,

'cause lake's gonna freeze, winter's gonna roll in,

and as the calories begin to dissipate from your area,

you know, you become less and less enthusiastic

about the process.

There's scat right there.

Lots of it.

Looks like I just missed the meat truck.

I believe a fear of predators is a legitimate concern,

but I'm going to be trying to bait them in

using gut piles.

And I'm talking bear and wolverine

or whatever else it may be.

I'm not necessarily scared of them until

it gets to the point where we're all hungry and looking.

You know, I don't want to die out here,

but it's a very real possibility.

Accidents happen.

You can see how steep these rock faces get here.

It's just that easy.

These crevices here...

they're all in these rock formations.

See, that's a mechanical injury waiting to happen.

I'll have to make a mental note because the longer I'm out here

and the snow builds up, if I plan on using these rocks

as any mode of travel from one spot to another,

it can be fairly treacherous.

This is home.

I gotta make this work for me.

Time to clock in.

Okay.

Here we go!

Here we go.

I don't know what the best way is to deal with this thing.

Just...

I can carry it like a big baby or...

Argh!

I love a challenge.

I love being pushed to the ultimate limit.

And it's hard in this world to find that

in a real pure state, and nature is the only place

that I've ever found that you can be free to be you,

no matter what.

That was a little heavy.

I think my life has been geared towards this moment,

and...I'm not here to prove what women can do,

I'm just here to win.

You ready to go fishing, big guy?

I'm a wilderness guide and commercial fisherman.

I've spent over 20 years living primitive survival.

I'm tough.

I'm powerful in who I am.

When I was learning primitive survival skills,

all I wanted to do was go live in the woods.

One day, I just decided I was gonna go and do it.

My friend and I--we were out a total of a year and a half

near Vancouver Island living off the land.

I know what it's like to suffer.

We were starving and cold.

And so we figured out what the truth of survival was

and then we thrived.

We hunted two bears.

We caught one in a primitive deadfall

and snared one and then speared it.

I know what it is to face big, huge animals

that are trying to kill you.

These kind of skills and things

that I've lived through is what's really gonna push me

beyond other people.

I wanna get to another level,

and it's gonna take a lot for me to get there.

And I think there is some suffering I haven't felt

that's really gonna push me forward.

And I'm ready for it.

I'm gonna spend a lot of time

just walking around and exploring my area,

harvesting as much as I can because in a couple weeks,

as soon as the weather changes,

everything is gonna be gone here.

Oh, but looksy-here.

Mushrooms.

Yes!

Ugh.

Mouse poo.

Mushrooms poo-ed on by mice.

Like, did you ever think someone would wanna eat that?

This is the arctic, folks.

That is the most grossest thing ever.

Like some of these are just almost making me throw up

looking at them-- there's so much poo on them.

Like, I don't know if that's even healthy.

Those--that's just gross.

- I hear something.

Holy.

Oh, my God. There's a lynx.

There it is.

Oh, my gosh.

It's looking right at me.

I'm just gonna pretend I don't see him.

There he goes.

Oh, my gosh. I just saw a lynx!

Ah, he is not on the menu though, unfortunately.

That must mean I have hares around here.

He wouldn't be here if there wasn't hares.

I wanna go follow.

Let's see if I can find his tracks.

He is so camouflaged.

I know he's right in there.

He's probably hunkered down,

looking at me somewhere.

He knows I'm following him. I'm not gonna chase him.

It wastes more energy.

Damn it.

Okay, so I've run into...

my first problem of my first day here.

There is a squirrel with the spruce trees here.

I had a clear shot--missed,

and right there is my arrow.

I guess this is the reason I brought my ax with me.

I'm not here to impose myself on the environment.

I'm here to be as interdependent

with it as possible.

And there she is.

Still in good shape.

I have a real deep spiritual connection to being in nature,

but I also have a very intellectual,

trained perspective as well.

We need zucchini, summer squash.

- Yeah.

- Let's do some of the venison with rosemary.

- Yeah, I think that's a great idea.

- I am a permaculture designer,

homesteader, biologist, carpenter--

kind of a jack of all trades.

I've spent a lot of time in the wilderness

ever since I was 19.

I started as a park ranger

and I had a lot of time for weeks on end

completely by myself and those have always been

super formative times in my life.

I'm doing this because I'm a homesteader

without a homestead.

I have a very strong drive to build my own house,

and that's financially out of my reach right now.

But I don't want to fantasize about life.

I wanna--I wanna live it. I know how to work hard.

I know how to use my body and my hands

and my brain altogether.

And I'm out here for the long run.

I don't have any loose ends untied at home at all.

I've just got the most supportive girlfriend

I could possibly hope for. - Be safe.

- And barring medical accidents

or something like that,

I think I'm gonna do really well.

Okay, so I have a plan for tonight--

for sleeping tonight.

I...am gonna get my fire going.

And I'm very confident it's not going to rain tonight,

so I am gonna sleep out

under the stars tonight.

We're allowed to bring ten items out.

And I did not bring the ferro rod out with me.

That could be a spindle right there, potentially.

I'm very confident in my fire building skills.

I worked for a lot of years

in a temperate, cold rainforest,

and I can build a friction fire in those conditions

any time I like.

Because of that, I'm gonna rely on the wood materials

that are here which I've-- I love what I'm seeing.

And that's gonna free up my ability to,

you know, bring a gill net, for example.

Notches full of dust,

if you can get it hot enough.

And the wind is picking up and blowing my ember apart.

The sun has gone behind the hills.

Hmm.

Just does not keep smoking.

What's the deal?

That is a disappointment.

I might just call it a day

and not plan on having a fire tonight,

That's super disappointing.

I hope I don't regret not bringing a ferro rod.

Gained so much weight for this show.

I'm up to 225 pounds.

Phew.

I don't typically wear this when I'm hunting,

but I think I will for this excursion

because I'm just scouting right now.

A lot of my plans revolve around big game.

If I can harvest a big game animal,

it will sustain me longer than anybody else out here.

I'm gonna nock an arrow for the hike

'cause that's how I roll-- one in the chamber.

And then I'm gonna start whispering because...

if there's something to eat close by,

I don't wanna be talking to you...

when I take it.

Let's get in the woods a little bit

and see what we got.

That's just beautiful.

It's some magical woods.

Yeah, I promised my granddaughter, Lilly--

I told her I was going to the North Pole

just to make it easier to explain where I was going.

And told her I would--she asked me to give Santa Claus

five hugs for her, and to bring back

some reindeer hair so I'm gonna do my best.

I know that fat bastard lives around here somewhere.

Oh, yeah. Did you see that thing go?

My occupation is full-time hunting guide.

Hunting is my thing. That's what I do.

That's what I'm good at. I'm 55 now.

I think my age and my life experiences

are putting me in the right spot to win.

I will miss my kids. I'll miss my grandkids.

I wanna be a hero to my family because

when you get older, your kids find out as they get older,

that Daddy has feet of clay and he's not Superman.

And so, now I get a chance to do something a little

superhuman that most people don't get to do.

I'm very competitive. I wanna see.

I wanna see, can I do what I've done in the past

but on an extended period of time and film it all?

It's a huge challenge and the macho-man me is like,

"Bring it on."

I would really like to get the first big game animal

on "Alone."

Oh, golly day. How much meat a moose would be?

We got tracks right here, and these aren't that old.

There's probably a bear in this area.

There's a trail right there.

You can tell it walked right through there.

I'm gonna set up a temporary camp right here.

Um...

And I want one that's easily defendable.

I'm just making a tree fence a little bit...

I mean, granted, there's--

a big moose could walk right through that,

but it's just a slight deterrent.

I'd put an arrow through the thing

before it gets to that point.

Just basically wanna slow the critters down.

Right there.

There's nothing pretty about it.

It's kill or be killed.

If a bear is aggressive and coming after me,

I need to get more aggressive.

And you have to move with bad intent.

You stab until there's nothing moving.

The bears up here are much bigger than in the lower 48.

The black bears-- um, a young one,

three year old-- it's 250, 300 pounds.

Just by our camp-- uh, base camp.

I just heard something take a step.

Let's just listen for a minute.

What I'm gonna do is clear out some of this brush.

I'm blocking this off and if they come back,

I'll be able to stand up and shoot.

If I hear something, see something,

say something, I'ma do something.

I'm gonna kill some animals and eat 'em.

- That squir

- That squirrel is warning everything

within earshot that I'm here.

He's gotta be the first to die.

I think I'm gonna make a few squirrel poles.

So I don't have to hear that all the time.

As part of my gear, I selected 20 gauge wire,

which is more than enough to...

hang these guys off a noose.

As I make the noose,

I want to make it obviously for the size of smaller game.

And by having this snag wire,

the animal goes through it.

It gets caught on their fur, and that's how they--

it increases the odds of them getting caught.

It should look like that.

So that whenever the animal comes through...

it gets snagged on the wire,

and then it just rolls off.

There's my first squirrel pole leaned up against the tree

that they were barking at me from.

Let's head back and make some others.

Oh, man. Look at this.

That little dude.

Sitting there enjoying his breakfast in the sunshine.

Let's take a shot at him.

You're not gonna believe this.

Come check this out...

Look at that.

Right through his ears.

Not a bad shot.

Head back down and process this guy out.

Probably eat him and then use his guts for fish bait.

So, tomo--today's starting off on a pretty good start.

- I just been getting drizzled on a little bit.

It stopped, but I really hope the--

the rain holds out.

I've gotta build a shelter today.

I spent quite a few hours trying to figure out

the bow drill scene out here,

and I haven't quite done it yet.

Luckily, I trust the water source out here

is clean without boiling it, but I need to have fire.

Fire and shelter-- first order of business.

There we go. Perfect.

Something visited last night--

probably a moose or a muskox.

They're not by any means quiet.

What I'm probably mo afraid of out here his moose.

They are one of those just blatantly-aggressive animals

that will just come and kill you.

I cannot turn off my level of awareness.

Period.

This is not a place where you're gonna get

second chances.

Okay. Sweet.

I have a dry place for tonight for now.

Damn it.

Damn it, damn it, damn it.

I'm feeling like I hear something out there.

It's gonna be a long night.

- Okay.

I just now returned from a, um...

Several-hours-long scout around--

um, this ridge behind me,

and around the far end of the bay,

and, um, I found two new species of tree--

a Scouler's willow, and I think Aspen.

Both of these should be really good bow drill wood.

I'm starting to get a little bit weary.

I can't get a fire going.

Obviously, if I can't do that,

I can't survive out here.

That is really producing dust slowly.

I need to widen up that notch.

I'm not wavering. I'm still confident in myself.

This is taking forever to make dust.

This opportunity is massive-- massive in my life.

I've got a lot to accomplish out here,

so I'm gonna take it one step at a time

and have faith that if I just keep working it,

keep using my brain, I can stay out here.

- Um, I got a fire going.

I'm not sure if I got footage of it yet or not.

I, um,

went to move the camera a few minutes after I got going

and saw that the SD card was full,

but this is, uh,

probably the most difficult fire

I've ever gotten in my life.

It did take a whole day.

I need to keep this fire going.

Every time I don't,

it's going to be a big expenditure of energy.

I gotta have a long term strategy

that's better than that.

So that's that for now.

I'm gonna turn this off until I get another battery in it.

- There are ten badass participants this season,

but, uh, we got some wood nymphs

and forest sages in this group,

like, LARPing magic spells or whatever.

But they're really cool people,

and I like that they feel things from the heart--

just not me.

But in honor of them,

I'm going to ask these trees permission to cut it down

and to honor the life that I'm about to take,

even though it's a Jack pine.

Huh. We gotta do this correctly.

Hey, baby, how you doing?

You mind if I cut your kids down?

That's stupid.

See? Talking to trees is dumb.

They start talking back, you better run the other way.

Four days without food,

so I am going scouting,

hunting, whatever you want to call it.

See if I can hone in on where I need to be.

Yeah, there's old trails all through here,

but nothing that looks real recent.

It's never what you expect.

And I've never been in timber like this.

There's a little bit of water back there.

We're starting to get into a boggy

peat area.

That was a deep hole.

I got some stuff wet.

I didn't want to get wet.

But, exactly what I've been looking for.

This is nothing but wet and marshy.

Pretty freakin' awesome spot.

There's tracks all through here.

We're gonna call this, "Lilly's Bog."

I just named it after my granddaughter.

And the route to get here is called Eden's way--

named after my grandson.

Definitely gonna have to get back to my shelter

and build a fire, but I found my bog that I wanted.

Now I think I got a game plan for tomorrow morning--

get up bright and early and whack something.

I think it's gonna be a prime hunting location.

Look, they had a shovel.

Nice shovel.

Well, I'm a lucky guy.

Carry on.

Yeah, this is the part that makes you feel like

you're walking across a bunch of dinner plates

somebody left on the floor.

Man, I need protein.

Berries and this tea stuff--

they're good for some people, and it's okay.

Yeah, I need the vitamins and everything, but meat--

you gotta eat-- I'm a meat eater.

Burn it on the fire, crisp it up, and chomp it down.

That's what I do. Oh!

Oh, no!

- Think I broke it? - Holy.

I think I broke it.

Ah, I think I broke something.

I think I broke it.

No, no...

Ugh.

Oh! Oh, no, no, no.

Boy, that hurts.

damn it!

Fell backwards, knee bent the wrong way,

same way I hurt it in 1987.

Holy crap. That hurts.

I've broken enough stuff in my life.

I know the symptoms of this and that.

You got to be kidding me.

I can't walk...

I can't...

Hello? This is Tim.

I'm tapping out.

- Yeah, it's a good thin I don't cry...

Here they come.

Right here. My foot's numb.

My--

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Yeah, yeah, yeah?

Right there. - All right, Tim, hold on.

- Yeah, we might have a possible break.

I was going up on that ridge, so to fall here is ridiculous.

I'm not an emotional guy, but you just think about

all the other people that wanted to be in my place.

What is it, day four?

This is ridiculous.

This is not how I saw myself leaving.

I saw myself leaving with my daughter

coming through the woods saying,

"You did it, Pops. You did it."

I like being the one to pick broken people up

and carry them out. I don't want to be the one

that's broken and being carried out.

I was just now getting into the land enough

to make plans to hunt.

I figured two weeks tops, I'd have had my animal down.

And to go out before I even get a chance

to build a ground blind and do it--

that hurts immensely, to not have that opportunity.

- So, I don't know how many hours I spent in bed,

but it sure is nice-- a lot more than I do at home.

I think I've got the fire thing figured out.

Man, I feel like I earned it...

Today, I'm going to go check on my gill net,

which I set yesterday morning.

This runs out into the water.

Here, I've got the end of the log

anchored securely.

I'm not sure if you can see

the net dangling underneath there,

but it's perfect.

Okay, so I just got to my gill net, and, um,

it looks like there's a fish in it.

See that? It looks to be large.

So...

I'm gonna pull it out,

and I'm gonna have fish for dinner tonight--

and lunch and brunch.

Oh, that's definitely a big old lake trout.

It's still alive. Better give him the club.

Come on, you bugger. Don't get out.

Ah, man.

Holy smokes. Look at the size of that guy.

That is easily the biggest fish I've ever caught in my life.

That is food for a week, easily!

Look how monstrous it is.

Humility is the number one thing you need to have

out here to learn and adapt.

It's just a fact of life.

Without it,

you'll keep getting your ass handed to you.

You see it move?

That heart is still pumping.

Crazy.

Ba-bum.

Nature is infinite.

It's infinitely abundant as much as it can be

infinitely harsh.

That's half of a five gallon gas can I found on the beach

about 2/3 of the way filled up with fish meat.

That's pretty freakin' sweet.

If you go into nature looking for fight,

you will get a fight.

You can't outfight the infinite.

- The snow is coming down and accumulating.

There's already about 1/4 of an inch of it outside,

and it's only been going for 20 or 30 minutes, so...

The snow is blowing in to every corner.

I think it's time to make some walls for this thing.

Seems like snow is here early.

The cold here is gonna be severe,

and I think it's gonna come down to,

"How heat-able is your shelter?"

If you a not able to retain your body heat,

you will die very quickly.

Even if we get a big animal,

we still have to suffer through the cold.

It just accumulated this much

just as I started chopping the tree.

So I want to get this done and then head back to camp.

- Ooh, it's really snowing.

That's my fish song.

Oh, it's blowing it already.

Man, it is so windy.

It's just getting all tangled.

I gotta go.

I'm not prepared for snow.

I certainly wasn't expecting it

to come so soon.

I think there's a lot of people here

that are decent at suffering,

but people don't live here for a reason.

It's unforgiving, it's dangerous,

and I think the weather is gonna

make this harder than any other location

ever done on "Alone."

It's gonna be awful.

- The temperature has dropped.

It's a vast area

that has the ability to change quickly.

Barely keep my hands exposed for more than 15 minutes

before they start to kind of lose that dexterity.

It's hard to see.

Get caught out here in a whiteout,

you're in trouble.

I can tell that it's starting to accumulate,

and it doesn't look like it's slowing at all.

This is gonna complicate things.

I was not expecting the arctic to, um,

roll on with the snow

as quickly as it has.

It's gonna be a very, very long year,

and it'll be brutal.

I'm not sure any of us are truly grasping

what a winter in the arctic is like.

- This is the freakin' arctic.

It's gonna get real, real fast.

- Everything about this whole environment says,

you're not meant to survive out here.

- Ow!

- There's a few of us who are gonna

prove that statement wrong.

- Whoo-hoo-hoo!

- You've got predators.

You've got treacherous terrain.

You've got extreme weather patterns.

Holy. House is on fire.

Can't get it out.

- The wolverine--I trashed him.

- My arrow jammed into my leg. I need stitches.

- They don't tell you how to handle

missing the things that mean the most to you.

- My body needs some food.

- I could be filming the way I die.

Oh, what do I do?

Oh,.
