An experienced outdoorsman pulls his city-raised cousin into the wild, where hunting, fishing, and foraging become lessons in survival, humility, and the quiet power of living off the land.

To redeem last year's failed bear hunt, Ryan leads Joel into the challenging spring of Williams Lake and Horsefly; lost in tough terrain, Joel faces his fear of bears and the sacred, complex balance of taking an animal for food.

Ryan tests Joel's progress with a spring foraging trip in Prince George with expert Jenifer Côtè; fighting mosquitoes and grizzly sign, they trek to Cousin Eli's remote cabin and attempt to forage dinner — without picking the wrong plants.

Ryan forces Joel to face a freezing British Columbia winter through ice fishing and trapping; with a stop at Barkerville Brewing and a visit to a remote trapline, they uncover the rules of trapping cabins and efforts to revive the region's caribou.

Ryan takes Joel to Vancouver Island to experience ocean foraging and explore the fragile balance between commercial fishing and conservation.
