In the USA show, contestants are put to the test to brave over 100 miles of hazardous Alaskan terrain to win a grand prize of $500,000. The journey is a mix of endurance racing, bushcraft, and survival skills, as they battle the wild and unknown, featuring mountains, glaciers, wildlife, and rainforests. This is a battle of man against nature, and although the goal is to win, the greatest challenge is to make it out alive.
Over the course of six weeks and six races, the eight teams of two will traverse through the harshest Alaskan landscapes, having to source their own food and water while charting their own path on previously unexplored terrain. The duos must survive off the unwelcoming land as they battle every element while being relentlessly pursued by their competition. In each leg of the race, the last team to reach the finish line will be eliminated from the competition. Tested like never before, participants will endure physical pain while forging alliances and backstabbing their way to claim a spot in the finale and the chance to win the $500,000 if they can survive the hostile land ... and each other."
