Taking a flying boat upriver to the Great Bear Rainforest in Canada; hitching a ride to a Native American community in the far north; gold prospecting by plane.

Life is at the mercy of the elements in the South Pacific, where locals deal with a cyclone; a flying doctor makes the rounds, landing on an active volcano.

Arthur Williams flies into Siberia to learn how people survive in such a remote and cold location, and experiences a helicopter crash which results in a long drive on roads of ice.
