In the series most remote location, ten new survivalists must survive north of the Arctic Circle as they face the cold and dwindling sun for a chance to win $500,000.

As five new survivalists begin their first days in the Mackenzie River Delta they are met with an abundance of challenges in the uncharted Arctic terrain.

Between the fast-approaching Arctic winter and hunger setting in, the participants double down on their efforts for survival. Procuring food becomes an urgent necessity after survivalists go days without nourishment.

With new weather patterns looming, the days are numbered for those counting on foraging to pull them through.

The call of home grows stronger as the harsh realities of remote Arctic living set in for some participants. One survivalist finally gets their chance at big game, while another is caught off guard by a false sense of security.

With four people remaining, food insecurity reaches a high; one participant loses part of their harvest; another survivalist battles sickness brought on by an unfortunate source.
