Nature Survival

Vildmarksprøven er en historie om en ung kvinde, som gennem to år prøver kræfter med den barske natur i Yukon Territoriet ved Alaskas østlige grænse. Hun kan ikke engang tænde et bål, da hun flytter ud i en uisoleret, øde beliggende hytte, som tilhører den ranch, hun arbejder på. Men hun lærer efterhånden at klare sig i denne nye verden, hvor al transport foregår med hundeslæde, hvor der skal hugges brænde, hvis hun ikke vil fryse ihjel, og smeltes sne for at skaffe tilstrækkelig drikkevand.

On October 23, 2012, with Superstorm Sandy fast approaching, Captain Robin Walbridge made the fateful decision to sail the HMS Bounty from New London, Connecticut, to St. Petersburg, Florida, believing the wooden ship, a replica of the original, famous Bounty, would fare better at sea than at port. He told the crew that anyone who did not want to come on the voyage could leave the ship and there would be no hard feelings. No one took the captain up on his offer, and this decision would have fatal consequences.
