Ten survivalists from previous seasons return for redemption and a second chance to win the $500,000 prize. But this time, they face the dangers of Northern Mongolia, a location more wild and more remote than they've ever seen.
Participants explore new - and risky - food sources in Mongolia. As the survivalists begin to settle into their new remote surroundings, they realize they're not the only predators on the prowl.
The survivalists begin to face external and internal threats as they work to secure food and complete their shelters. One participant comes face-to-face with one of Mongolia's deadliest predators, while another fights to overcome a debilitating health issue.
In a new twist, seven family member pairs are dropped miles apart on Northern Vancouver Island and must find each other. To win the $500,000 prize, they must survive the island's unforgiving terrain and deadly predators together.
As their teammates attempt to set up camp, the hikers find that Vancouver Island's terrain is even more punishing when on the move. The island beats one pair into submission, while another grapples with a devastating accident.
