Utah Canyonlands
The spectacular red landscapes of Utah’s Canyonlands are as beautiful as they are inhospitable. Like outlaws of old who were known to eat their own horses out of desperation in this forlorn place, Stroud will cannibalize the mountain-bike he has ridden into the middle of nowhere. As well as these scavenged bike parts to aid him, he also has a multi-tool, a magnesium flint stick and an old energy bar that he uses for a purpose other than eating.

Lost At Sea
Living “off the land” takes on a new meaning as Survivorman Les Stroud casts off for a week at sea. With no food and only a bare minimum of equipment, Les will be set adrift in an inflatable life raft off the coast of Belize. Battling hunger, thirst and the Caribbean heat, he must also keep his cameras dry to film the ordeal. To top it off, not only does the life raft have a few bad water leaks, needing constant bailing but it also leaks air, requiring Les to frequently re-inflate it using only a hand pump. Survivorman is in for a busy 7 day adventure.
