Tony and Amelia rush to finish their indoor rocket mass heater to protect their baby livestock. Derik attempts to bring his mules back home but is thrown from the saddle by the skittish team.

Colbert has just a few days left to capture enough pelts to use for trading over the course of the year. Thorn builds a small fishing vessel called a “coracle.” Tony and Amelia have decided to make sycamore syrup, in hopes of adding it to their list of bartering items. Tobias sets off on an 80-mile journey north to establish a new primitive base camp.

Tobias sets off on a journey through the Arizona Desert with only what he can carry on his back to survive. Colbert is hot on the scent of an elusive feral hog. Thorn arrives in an area known for its beaver hunting. And Derik is finally ready to hit the road, but any sudden noise or change in weather could put their journey — and lives — at risk.

Derik’s plan to collect water from a distant spring is shattered when a motorcycle spooks his mule. Tony and Amelia want to try their hand at turkey hunting. Tobias struggles to find water as he continues his 80-mile hike to his new campgrounds, and Colbert prepares to meet up with a friend from before he decided to “re-wild.”

Deep in the swamp, frontiersman Colbert tries to escape the plague of mosquitos. Woodsman Thorn takes to the forest to stalk an elusive turkey and homesteaders Tony and Amelia try to stop their chickens from destroying their garden.

Tony and Amelia race to save their bees. Thorn tries to control a massive bonfire. Colbert finishes a critical step of his new cabin, and Tobias builds a shelter to protect him from the harsh desert.

Primitive blacksmith Derik must be resourceful in order to get his mules home. Woodsman Thorn attempts to trap crayfish. Desert nomad Tobias is desperate for protein. And homesteaders Tony and Amelia deal with an overabundance of rabbits.

Colbert’s 20-year-old canoe has sprung its final leak. Tobias makes another desperate attempt to find protein at his new camp, and Thorn must tackle his leaking roof before mold sets in.

A sudden storm forces Colbert to cut short a fishing expedition in his new canoe. Blacksmith Derik attempts to fix his roof with the help of his mule, but the stubborn animal refuses to cooperate. Woodsman Thorn sets out in the dead of night to hunt bullfrogs; they prove a lot harder to catch than he imagined. And desert nomad Tobias discovers that his only water source is disappearing under the burning hot Arizona sun.

Tony and Amelia’s slash-and-burn project gets out of control. Derik’s troublesome mules escape the corral. Thorn gets crafty with road kill. Tobias’s water source dries up, and Colbert must work through an injury to finish his cabin.
