The episode opens with a frantic call from a group of hikers who are lost somewhere in the remote Alaskan wilderness.

Enter the ultimate bush pilots, a group of experienced aviators who are up for any challenge. The pilots, including Cody, Robby, and Sarah, set out on a mission to rescue the hikers, who are in danger of hypothermia and starvation. The pilots realize that time is of the essence and that they need to act fast to save the hikers.

The pilots take to the skies in their trusted planes, flying over the Alaskan wilderness and searching for any signs of the stranded hikers.

As they fly over Deadman's Pass, the pilots spot the hikers, who are waving frantically at their planes. The pilots quickly descend and land on a nearby makeshift landing strip, which barely fits their planes. The pilots are greeted by the hikers, who are cold, hungry and extremely grateful to see them. The group quickly loads up the planes with supplies and the hikers, and they take off back to civilization.

However, their journey back is far from smooth sailing. A sudden storm rolls in, bringing with it gusts of winds and heavy rain.
