DESCRIPTION:
(from National Geographic Channel's press release, June 2015) Finally, NGC ventures deep into the Alaskan wilderness with a group of brave adventurers who descend upon the mighty Yukon River on log rafts each year to make a living by selling wood and supplies to remote villages along the riverbank. In each episode of new adventure series Yukon River Run, premiering Monday, July 20, at 9/8c, three different crews are faced with the challenge of navigating the dangerous Yukon River while competing against the elements and each other in hopes of earning a reasonable living ... and making it out alive. Danger lurks behind every bend, but survival is all in a day's work for these Alaskans, who are not only competing against each other but also against the quickly approaching harsh winter months. These raft crews are taking on the challenge of a lifetime to support their families as well as their taste for adventure, but as the impending freeze threatens both safety and success, the stakes are heightened as they endeavor to cash out and escape the cold alive.
