The Summit

Sixteen Americans embark on a once-in-a-lifetime journey through the treacherous New Zealand Alps in an attempt to reach the peak of a mountain in just 14 days in order to keep their share of the $1 million prize they're carrying in their backpacks.

After a weather delay pauses the group's progress, they set out to try and make up for lost time. When they reach an obstacle that forces them to split into pairs, one trekker is left to face the challenge alone.

As the trekkers hit the halfway mark on their journey and venture toward the snow line, a divide in pace emerges within the group. After a daunting obstacle the group learns that they have broken a fundamental rule of THE SUMMIT .

After an unexpected checkpoint elimination, the group struggles when they must cross a precarious deep ravine by crawling over a bridge made of two parallel ropes to stay on their route.
