Ep 8. All In

As winter approaches, the residents of Tanana, Alaska are all in, doing everything they can to prepare for the long, harsh season ahead. In this episode of Yukon Men, we follow the lives of several locals as they work tirelessly to ensure their survival in the unforgiving wilderness.

For Pat, a lifelong resident of Tanana, the stakes are higher than ever. With his health in decline, he knows that he must catch enough moose to keep himself and his family fed through the winter. He sets out with his son to track down one of the elusive creatures, but the hunt proves to be more challenging than they anticipated. As the hours slip by, Pat becomes increasingly fatigued, and his son worries that they may be in over their heads.

Meanwhile, Charlie Wright, another resident of Tanana, faces a different kind of challenge. His only means of transportation, a snowmobile, has broken down, leaving him stranded at his remote cabin. With no one else around for miles, Charlie must rely on his ingenuity and resourcefulness to repair his vehicle and get back to town before the weather turns even more treacherous. The isolation and the cold weigh heavily on him, but he refuses to give up.

Over at the Moore homestead, the family is also feeling the pressure. They have been working hard to build a new cabin to shelter them from the elements, but progress has been slow. As winter approaches, they know that they must redouble their efforts if they want to have a roof over their heads before the snow starts to fall. But the work is grueling, and tensions run high as they struggle to stay focused and motivated.

Throughout the episode, we see the harsh reality of life in the Yukon. Every day brings new challenges, and the smallest mistake can mean the difference between life and death. Yet despite the hardships, the residents of Tanana remain determined to thrive in this unforgiving environment. As the episode draws to a close, we are left wondering what the future holds for these brave and resilient people, and whether they will be able to survive another winter in the wilderness.
