Part 1: British Columbia Boat Trip to Mount Waddington
Four athletes, Stian Hagen, Andrea Binning, Phil Meier and Bryce Phillips, from across the globe spend ten days aboard a luxury yacht in pursuit of a once in a life time heli-ski experience. As the days go by and the weather refuses to cooperate their mental and physical stamina is put to the test. Their hosts provide a number of cultural experiences and fun activities to distract the athletes from their arduous wait. When the time finally comes to ski, the athletes skills are put to the test by less than desirable avalanche conditions; and for some, it is literally the run of their life.
