Adak Island

Adak Island

When Chris and his son Tyler set out to hunt caribou on the remote island of Adak- a wind swept mostly deserted wonder in the Bering Sea- they expected a challenging trip. What they got was a battle for survival. Four miles from their truck, Chris suffered a devastating knee injury, tearing his patella tendon. With no local rescue team, no hospital and no quick way off the island, they reached out to the Coast Guard using a Garmin inReach-only to be told they were on their own.


What followed was an all-night trek through freezing terrain as Tyler helped his injured father inch his way back to the truck, but that wasn't the only thing out there. Strange orbs of light began to appear in the sky, hovering, and streaking above. Tyler was left shaken, Chris refused to talk about it. Whatever it was, it added a layer of the unexplainable to an already life-threatening situation.


In this episode we breakdown what went wrong, how they got out, and what every outdoorsman and adventurer can learn from their story. From survival tactics to the limits of emergency response in the wilderness-this is a journey you wont forget.
