- Join Kilian, a world-class ultrarunner, in his new backyard in Norway as he attempts to ski and run the Seven Summits of Romsdalen in a single day.
- From her first ascent of Mont Blanc, still a teenager, Liv Sansoz knew that she had worked in the mountains for her life. Twice world climbing champion, she then opened up to mountaineering, skiing and base jumping before embarking on a monumental project: climbing the 82 peaks of 4,000 meters or more in the Alps, in one year.
- Andreas Fransson has been called the boldest extreme skier in a generation. Over the past three years he has logged first descents in a half-dozen countries, battled back to life from an accident that nearly killed him, and become the most talked about skier in the epicenter of all things extreme - Chamonix, France. What makes Andreas most intriguing, however, are his thoughtful musings on meaning from a life on the edge - a willingness to enter mental spaces that few have ever experienced. In Tempting Fear, Sweden's soft-spoken Adventurer of the Year explores a place in which fear overwhelms all emotions, playing both friend and enemy in a pas de deux where death lies just one misstep away.
- Lynx hunt hares in the forest while wolves and caribou clash on the tundra. Owls hunt over the snow and red foxes try to surprise their prey.
- A number of British Columbia based athletes, both professional and amateur, and both active and retired, talk about what home means to them. Their perspectives are often in light of needing to be in a certain geographic location due to their sport, having done quite a bit of travel for that sport, and how participating in that sport has affected their decision of "home" in a retirement life. These perspectives somewhat apply also to a spoken word poet, who is on a stage like the athletes, but to some extent has a broader choice of home in relation to his work. The final interview is with an author, who has a totally different perspective in being able to choose wherever he wants to live in terms of his work, and in this specific incident what home actually means to him in light of that.
- Travel to the edge of the earth to see one of the planet's rarest events - a total solar eclipse in the Arctic. Reuben Krabbe's grand vision is to capture a single unique image - one of skiing during a solar eclipse.
