Jim Baird documents the "true wilderness" experience of a 14-day, 300-km canoe expedition through the Canadian sub-Arctic in this four-part series. Episode 1 tracks the crew — which includes Baird's wife Tori and dog Buck, as well as his brother Ted and his girlfriend Heather — through a grueling approach and technical rapids in fully loaded canoes to arrive at the Northwest Territories' rugged Mountain River.
