1
00:00:01,752 --> 00:00:04,086
[Gabe] Wow. She's ready.
2
00:00:04,088 --> 00:00:05,153
[Snowbird] Welcome. Welcome
3
00:00:05,231 --> 00:00:07,131
The roof looks
a little different.
4
00:00:07,133 --> 00:00:09,758
It's a little different.
Over here is way different.
5
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,302
Can you still get through
the hatch?
6
00:00:12,304 --> 00:00:13,762
Not here.
It's in the bathroom.
7
00:00:13,764 --> 00:00:16,181
In the bathroom.
8
00:00:16,183 --> 00:00:20,978
What if you're downstairs
and you need to come upstairs.
9
00:00:21,022 --> 00:00:22,262
You come up...
10
00:00:22,264 --> 00:00:24,565
-...and someone's
in the bathroom?
-No.
11
00:00:24,567 --> 00:00:25,816
Every time
I'm in the bathroom,
12
00:00:25,818 --> 00:00:27,735
I'm like,
putting my foot on the hole.
13
00:00:27,811 --> 00:00:29,194
I'm like, you know, trying
to make sure
14
00:00:29,271 --> 00:00:30,604
nobody can come up it.
15
00:00:30,606 --> 00:00:32,531
[Gabe] I don't want
to nit-pick designs.
16
00:00:34,827 --> 00:00:36,035
[narrator] This year,
17
00:00:36,111 --> 00:00:37,703
the Brown siblings
spread their wings
18
00:00:37,705 --> 00:00:39,163
more than ever before.
19
00:00:39,206 --> 00:00:40,622
You're not going
to bring Bird back.
20
00:00:40,699 --> 00:00:42,416
You're going
to bring a wild animal.
21
00:00:42,493 --> 00:00:45,044
[narrator] Pursuing
new chapters in their lives
22
00:00:45,046 --> 00:00:46,920
I want to be able to stand
on my porch butt naked
23
00:00:46,997 --> 00:00:49,506
and put off a couple
of rounds into my target.
24
00:00:49,550 --> 00:00:51,592
[narrator]
But every step brings hurdle
25
00:00:53,220 --> 00:00:54,053
Oh, bro.
26
00:00:54,055 --> 00:00:55,721
I'm dying.
27
00:00:55,723 --> 00:00:58,557
[narrator] And on this episo
of Alaskan Bush People...
28
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,727
...lost footage
and new insight
29
00:01:01,729 --> 00:01:04,980
reveal more challenges
and fun family moments...
30
00:01:04,982 --> 00:01:07,316
I've had more concussions
than most boxers.
31
00:01:07,318 --> 00:01:09,860
[narrator] ...that made
their journey even sweeter.
32
00:01:09,904 --> 00:01:12,237
-It's weird.
-Let's do this.
33
00:01:24,001 --> 00:01:26,043
So I'm bringing up
some automated feeders
34
00:01:26,045 --> 00:01:27,419
for while we're gone.
35
00:01:27,421 --> 00:01:28,611
Gone?
36
00:01:28,613 --> 00:01:31,381
So it goes through
and feeds everything
37
00:01:31,425 --> 00:01:33,342
while we're in Alaska.
38
00:01:34,512 --> 00:01:36,386
Alaska?
You're going to Alaska?
39
00:01:36,430 --> 00:01:38,806
Uh, Rain and I
40
00:01:38,882 --> 00:01:42,142
have been looking for a piece
of property in Alaska.
41
00:01:45,356 --> 00:01:47,397
[narrator] It's a period
of growth and change
42
00:01:47,399 --> 00:01:48,649
for the Brown family,
43
00:01:48,651 --> 00:01:50,567
as each member
of the wolfpack
44
00:01:50,602 --> 00:01:53,695
looks to take big strides
in their own lives.
45
00:01:53,697 --> 00:01:55,906
[Gabe]
I think this year, more tha
a lot of other years,
46
00:01:55,908 --> 00:01:58,784
we... we had our sights
that really high, like,
47
00:01:58,819 --> 00:02:01,703
we all were really trying
to accomplish
something grandiose.
48
00:02:01,780 --> 00:02:03,455
How good does it feel
to be on the ocean again?
49
00:02:03,457 --> 00:02:04,790
[Snowbird] It's very surreal.
50
00:02:04,792 --> 00:02:06,875
Everyone separately
had their own things
51
00:02:06,877 --> 00:02:08,001
they were trying
to accomplish.
52
00:02:08,003 --> 00:02:09,169
And I think that's...
53
00:02:09,171 --> 00:02:10,963
that means you're good,
though.
54
00:02:10,965 --> 00:02:13,423
[narrator] But not without
their fair share of setbacks
55
00:02:13,467 --> 00:02:14,591
-Hold it. Hold it.
-Stay clear.
56
00:02:14,593 --> 00:02:16,284
Coming down. Stay clear.
57
00:02:16,286 --> 00:02:19,138
[Ami]
Sometimes big challenges,
things can go wrong.
58
00:02:19,298 --> 00:02:20,556
Sometimes?
59
00:02:20,558 --> 00:02:22,307
It's hard for us
for that to happen.
60
00:02:22,309 --> 00:02:24,560
But then when you overcome
those challenges
61
00:02:24,562 --> 00:02:26,770
and you find a way
to continue doing
62
00:02:26,772 --> 00:02:28,221
what you're doing, to me,
63
00:02:28,223 --> 00:02:31,650
it brings more satisfaction
when the job is finished.
64
00:02:32,778 --> 00:02:34,820
Welcome to all
who have gathered here
65
00:02:34,897 --> 00:02:38,866
to share this
marriage ceremony
of Raiven and Solomon Brown.
66
00:02:38,868 --> 00:02:42,661
[narrator] The year began
with an important milestone
for the family,
67
00:02:42,663 --> 00:02:45,914
the marriage
of Bear and Raiven.
68
00:02:45,991 --> 00:02:48,959
And while the ceremony
went off without a hitch...
69
00:02:49,003 --> 00:02:51,378
Do you, Solomon,
take Raiven
70
00:02:51,380 --> 00:02:53,630
to be your lawfully
wedded wife
71
00:02:53,674 --> 00:02:55,382
till death do you part?
72
00:02:55,384 --> 00:02:56,592
I do.
73
00:02:56,594 --> 00:02:57,834
[narrator] ...lost footage
74
00:02:57,845 --> 00:03:00,012
shows the morning
of the big day
75
00:03:00,014 --> 00:03:02,639
nearly begins disastrously.
76
00:03:04,310 --> 00:03:06,000
Hello?
77
00:03:06,078 --> 00:03:09,188
We're halfway up the mountain
and we didn't have
enough fuel.
78
00:03:09,264 --> 00:03:11,732
I'll... I'll get up
as quick as I can, baby.
79
00:03:11,808 --> 00:03:14,401
[Raiven speaking]
80
00:03:15,821 --> 00:03:17,279
[Bear] Maybe an hour.
81
00:03:17,281 --> 00:03:18,322
Sorry, baby.
82
00:03:18,324 --> 00:03:20,032
-[Raiven speaking]
-More.
83
00:03:21,243 --> 00:03:23,160
You know, with weddings,
everybody's rushing.
84
00:03:23,162 --> 00:03:24,453
You got a deadline to me.
85
00:03:24,455 --> 00:03:26,205
And then you add the fact
86
00:03:26,207 --> 00:03:28,749
that the wedding
was on the top of our mountain
in the property,
87
00:03:28,825 --> 00:03:32,961
I just pushed it a little bit
far with the Suburban,
and it just died on me.
88
00:03:32,963 --> 00:03:35,422
Touche, getting y'all guys'
help with this.
89
00:03:35,424 --> 00:03:37,090
-Running late.
-Yeah.
90
00:03:37,125 --> 00:03:41,178
There's nothing like taking
a hike in a skirt and...
91
00:03:41,180 --> 00:03:43,013
Can say y'all guys
are dressed to kill.
92
00:03:43,057 --> 00:03:44,973
When Rain and I got
to the Suburban,
93
00:03:44,975 --> 00:03:47,184
you know, he wasn't actually
very far up the mountain,
94
00:03:47,186 --> 00:03:50,229
so, you know,
it broke down real quick.
95
00:03:50,305 --> 00:03:53,440
But all Rain and I did,
we just brought gas.
96
00:03:53,442 --> 00:03:54,566
We were like, you know what?
97
00:03:54,568 --> 00:03:56,360
Let's try gas
before anything else.
98
00:03:56,362 --> 00:03:57,753
It's a good pit crew.
99
00:03:57,755 --> 00:04:00,113
Yeah, I came up, I was trying
to haul the stuff,
100
00:04:00,115 --> 00:04:02,866
and I thought she had
enough fuel to make it,
101
00:04:02,910 --> 00:04:03,909
but she didn't.
102
00:04:03,911 --> 00:04:05,744
So here we are.
103
00:04:05,779 --> 00:04:07,246
Y'all guys didn't bring me
too much fuel,
104
00:04:07,322 --> 00:04:08,997
but I think it should be
enough to... to make it.
105
00:04:09,074 --> 00:04:10,290
It's something, so...
106
00:04:10,292 --> 00:04:11,959
I mean, it wouldn't be
a Brown wedding
107
00:04:11,961 --> 00:04:13,752
if we weren't falling
a little behind.
108
00:04:13,754 --> 00:04:15,570
Of course, it's something.
109
00:04:15,572 --> 00:04:17,506
You know, we're getting ready
for a momentous,
joyous occasion.
110
00:04:17,508 --> 00:04:20,175
Of course, you know,
the Suburban is going
to break down on the way up.
111
00:04:20,252 --> 00:04:21,677
That's just par
for the course.
112
00:04:21,753 --> 00:04:23,262
[engine starts]
113
00:04:23,264 --> 00:04:25,555
-Okay.
-She's good.
114
00:04:25,557 --> 00:04:28,433
Saying to service tires,
but I think that can wait.
115
00:04:28,510 --> 00:04:30,310
Fuels a little bit above E.
116
00:04:30,312 --> 00:04:32,345
Not even just
the Suburban breakdown,
117
00:04:32,347 --> 00:04:34,147
he had all the supplies
for the wedding
and everything inside it.
118
00:04:34,149 --> 00:04:35,399
[Gabe] Yeah, yeah.
119
00:04:35,401 --> 00:04:38,026
All the decorations, the cake.
120
00:04:38,028 --> 00:04:39,820
-The dress. All of it.
-The dress.
121
00:04:39,896 --> 00:04:41,321
Okay. Y'all excited?
122
00:04:41,323 --> 00:04:42,614
Y'all guys nervous for me?
123
00:04:42,649 --> 00:04:44,825
-A little, yeah.
-I'm excited.
124
00:04:44,901 --> 00:04:46,702
The question is,
are you nervous?
125
00:04:46,737 --> 00:04:48,345
[Bear] A little bit nervous.
126
00:04:48,347 --> 00:04:51,081
Just that I want everything
to, you know, be just perfect,
127
00:04:51,125 --> 00:04:52,374
you know, fairy tale style.
128
00:04:52,376 --> 00:04:55,210
You know, don't want
to get in there
129
00:04:55,287 --> 00:04:58,380
and notice my sister
have these huge boots on.
130
00:04:58,382 --> 00:04:59,464
What are you talking about?
131
00:04:59,541 --> 00:05:01,341
You think
I didn't notice your boots?
132
00:05:01,343 --> 00:05:03,343
I did not think you--
What's to notice?
133
00:05:03,420 --> 00:05:05,095
[laughing]
134
00:05:05,097 --> 00:05:06,680
Although I always
try to keep it as cool
135
00:05:06,757 --> 00:05:08,223
and under control
as possible always,
136
00:05:08,225 --> 00:05:09,975
even in bad storms,
burning houses,
137
00:05:10,052 --> 00:05:11,518
I'm always as cool
as I could be.
138
00:05:11,595 --> 00:05:14,354
But Bird has these
gigantic boots on
139
00:05:14,356 --> 00:05:16,106
which aren't exactly
appropriate for wedding.
140
00:05:16,150 --> 00:05:17,941
I'm like, "Birdie, come on.
141
00:05:17,943 --> 00:05:19,860
I think I've got a pair
of spare boots to give her
142
00:05:19,936 --> 00:05:21,069
to by the time
we get up there.
143
00:05:21,146 --> 00:05:22,612
I'm just glad
I have the fuel now."
144
00:05:22,614 --> 00:05:24,230
It's like,
"Oh, nice suit, Birdie."
145
00:05:24,232 --> 00:05:27,659
And then you have these
gigantic
mud-clunking boots on.
146
00:05:27,661 --> 00:05:28,885
What's wrong with my boots?
147
00:05:28,887 --> 00:05:30,412
-Are you kidding?
-These are my good boots.
148
00:05:30,414 --> 00:05:32,456
They'd be fine if you were
going through the Alaska bush,
149
00:05:32,499 --> 00:05:35,625
into the muskeg,
hunting for deer.
150
00:05:36,337 --> 00:05:37,919
You didn't...
Don't have any other boots.
151
00:05:37,921 --> 00:05:40,047
No, I have other shoes,
but not with me obviously.
152
00:05:40,123 --> 00:05:41,748
I thought these were good.
153
00:05:41,825 --> 00:05:43,842
[Bear] Those are the boots
you're planning on
actually wearing?
154
00:05:43,919 --> 00:05:45,844
I was. Yes.
Are you against it?
155
00:05:45,846 --> 00:05:47,262
[laughing]
156
00:05:47,264 --> 00:05:48,513
Well, look at 'em.
Look at 'em.
157
00:05:48,515 --> 00:05:49,765
[Bear] Birdie, they're like...
158
00:05:49,767 --> 00:05:52,309
-They're nice.
-They're pretty bad.
159
00:05:52,311 --> 00:05:55,395
[Snowbird] Once, like,
after all the chaos
and the cars breaking down,
160
00:05:55,472 --> 00:05:57,272
you know,
to get to Bear's wedding,
161
00:05:57,274 --> 00:06:00,442
the payoff
was the magical ceremony.
162
00:06:00,519 --> 00:06:03,070
[Gabe] Yeah.
The best part to me
was the end.
163
00:06:03,146 --> 00:06:05,405
Like, once the ceremony
was done
164
00:06:05,407 --> 00:06:07,074
and it was just
that realization
165
00:06:07,150 --> 00:06:09,076
that we'd welcomed
another wolf to the pack.
166
00:06:09,078 --> 00:06:11,745
[all howling]
167
00:06:19,546 --> 00:06:22,756
[narrator]
As Bear starts a new chapte
on the mountain...
168
00:06:22,833 --> 00:06:26,676
Where exactly
are you thinking about
putting your house?
169
00:06:26,678 --> 00:06:28,929
Do you already
have a place in mind
or are you still looking?
170
00:06:29,005 --> 00:06:30,430
I mean, Raquell and I have
talked about it,
171
00:06:30,507 --> 00:06:31,890
but we haven't really scouted
a lot of it,
172
00:06:31,967 --> 00:06:33,809
so we don't really know.
173
00:06:33,885 --> 00:06:36,645
[narrator] For Brother Gabe
the dream of planting roots
174
00:06:36,721 --> 00:06:38,855
on the ranch is top priority
175
00:06:38,899 --> 00:06:41,983
But even the earliest stage
of his house build
176
00:06:42,060 --> 00:06:43,985
proves a challenge.
177
00:06:44,062 --> 00:06:45,654
Tracks. Tracks.
178
00:06:45,656 --> 00:06:47,072
-Oh.
-Ooh.
179
00:06:47,074 --> 00:06:49,366
Sasquatch.
180
00:06:49,368 --> 00:06:51,225
The thing that really lit
a fire under me
181
00:06:51,227 --> 00:06:55,414
to get the house built
was to bring Raquell
and the girls back up
182
00:06:55,416 --> 00:06:57,791
because it's so hard
with them away.
183
00:06:57,793 --> 00:06:59,793
But, you know, I ran
into all sorts of problems.
184
00:06:59,870 --> 00:07:01,878
Everywhere I would start
to put a cabin,
185
00:07:01,913 --> 00:07:04,381
it would be, like,
way too rocky, you know?
186
00:07:04,383 --> 00:07:06,633
And then other parts,
no trees, other parts,
187
00:07:06,635 --> 00:07:08,718
widowmaker trees,
188
00:07:08,762 --> 00:07:11,179
and just
too many predators here.
189
00:07:11,181 --> 00:07:15,559
There's a spot
where I actually found a kill,
190
00:07:15,561 --> 00:07:18,270
and that's where
I'm thinking about putting it.
191
00:07:18,305 --> 00:07:20,897
Okay.
Yeah, you find
an animal carcass,
192
00:07:20,899 --> 00:07:22,357
that's where you want
to build your home.
193
00:07:22,359 --> 00:07:23,942
Well, you know--
Sounds about right.
194
00:07:23,944 --> 00:07:26,153
If it was good enough
for a cougar to dine, yeah.
195
00:07:26,155 --> 00:07:27,446
Right.
196
00:07:28,407 --> 00:07:31,450
Every cougar,
that I've seen down here,
197
00:07:31,452 --> 00:07:33,660
every bear
that has given us trouble
198
00:07:33,662 --> 00:07:34,870
came through here, right?
199
00:07:34,946 --> 00:07:36,103
You know, I thought
200
00:07:36,105 --> 00:07:37,146
I was just gonna
walk up there,
201
00:07:37,148 --> 00:07:38,957
see a nice spot,
stake my claim.
202
00:07:38,959 --> 00:07:40,834
You know, this is Gabesville,
you know?
203
00:07:40,836 --> 00:07:43,545
I had no idea how much goes
into a simple decision,
204
00:07:43,547 --> 00:07:45,881
like,
where to place your house.
205
00:07:45,883 --> 00:07:47,924
[Bear] So what you're thinking
further down this trail
206
00:07:47,926 --> 00:07:49,676
or off on the road
or literally just go further--
207
00:07:49,678 --> 00:07:51,219
Somewhere in here.
208
00:07:51,221 --> 00:07:53,555
Okay, that's one reason I--
209
00:07:53,632 --> 00:07:55,140
Can you climb?
210
00:07:55,142 --> 00:07:57,142
Uh... I'm Bear, aren't I?
211
00:07:58,604 --> 00:08:01,104
[Gabe] Scurry on up.
Okay, I'm going up.
212
00:08:01,106 --> 00:08:02,564
Don't go too high.
213
00:08:02,566 --> 00:08:03,648
Just high enough.
214
00:08:03,725 --> 00:08:05,275
If tree climbing
was a superpower,
215
00:08:05,319 --> 00:08:06,860
I'd be a superhero.
216
00:08:06,937 --> 00:08:08,778
I know. Are you already up
at the top?
217
00:08:08,780 --> 00:08:10,989
-Yup.
-Okay.
218
00:08:10,991 --> 00:08:11,948
I shouldn't go any further.
219
00:08:11,950 --> 00:08:13,566
He'll get flimsy on me.
220
00:08:13,568 --> 00:08:15,494
[Gabe] Definitely nice
to be able to depend on Bea
221
00:08:15,496 --> 00:08:16,586
-to shimmy up a tree...
-Yep.
222
00:08:16,588 --> 00:08:18,346
...and tell you
what's on the horizon.
223
00:08:18,348 --> 00:08:20,874
You know, you don't have
to... you don't have to
butter him up much for that.
224
00:08:20,876 --> 00:08:23,251
It's like, "Hey, Bear,
could you climb this tree?"
Yes.
225
00:08:23,328 --> 00:08:24,544
Be careful.
226
00:08:24,621 --> 00:08:26,588
Oh, I'm not that high up.
227
00:08:26,590 --> 00:08:30,008
Well, still, I don't want
you to get hurt scouting
my land.
228
00:08:30,010 --> 00:08:31,218
It's actually a nice view.
229
00:08:31,220 --> 00:08:33,929
And I can see
Mom and Dad's house, too.
230
00:08:34,005 --> 00:08:35,013
That's cool.
231
00:08:35,015 --> 00:08:36,515
That means if I go two story,
232
00:08:36,517 --> 00:08:37,974
I'm going to have
a great view.
233
00:08:37,976 --> 00:08:40,519
Got a nice sunset off
in the distance.
234
00:08:40,521 --> 00:08:41,561
-[Gabe] Whoo!
-[Bear] Right through there.
235
00:08:41,563 --> 00:08:43,429
[Gabe] Awesome.
236
00:08:43,431 --> 00:08:45,565
-[Bear] Yeah,
It's a pretty prime spot, man.
-Yes, I like it, too.
237
00:08:45,642 --> 00:08:48,401
I've always had a good feeling
about this area.
238
00:08:48,403 --> 00:08:51,571
After I got Bear to really
help me scout the area,
239
00:08:51,648 --> 00:08:55,825
then came the practical side
of actually finding a spot.
240
00:08:55,827 --> 00:08:57,786
And for that, I enlisted Bam.
241
00:08:57,788 --> 00:08:59,120
This is a hill.
242
00:08:59,122 --> 00:09:00,747
This is a drastic hill.
243
00:09:00,749 --> 00:09:02,666
Well,
that's a little flat spot.
244
00:09:02,709 --> 00:09:04,918
[Gabe] Bam
is really practical minded,
245
00:09:04,995 --> 00:09:07,170
and I think
that pragmatic attitude
246
00:09:07,172 --> 00:09:09,798
really came in handy finding
a good place.
247
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,508
But I just feel like
he brought a really good,
248
00:09:11,552 --> 00:09:13,176
like, logistic side to it.
249
00:09:13,178 --> 00:09:15,178
All right, it's leveled off
a little bit here.
250
00:09:15,180 --> 00:09:16,763
This isn't as bad.
251
00:09:16,765 --> 00:09:17,847
[Bam] This is it.
252
00:09:17,891 --> 00:09:19,808
Stake the spot.
253
00:09:19,884 --> 00:09:21,518
I have claimed my spot.
254
00:09:22,771 --> 00:09:23,937
It's done.
255
00:09:25,232 --> 00:09:26,881
Feels good.
256
00:09:28,569 --> 00:09:30,944
[narrator] Though his siblin
focus is on setting up
257
00:09:30,946 --> 00:09:32,737
their own families,
258
00:09:32,814 --> 00:09:34,573
Brother Bam's energy points
259
00:09:34,649 --> 00:09:37,242
towards
the Browns ranch operation,
260
00:09:37,244 --> 00:09:39,101
which is in need
of improvement.
261
00:09:39,103 --> 00:09:42,205
So everyone's been
kind of doing their own thing
on the mountain.
262
00:09:42,207 --> 00:09:44,040
Bear's getting his place
fixed up,
263
00:09:44,042 --> 00:09:47,210
and as his family moved up,
Gabe's work on his cabin.
264
00:09:47,254 --> 00:09:49,421
[Gabe]
It's starting to feel like
a home in here.
265
00:09:49,423 --> 00:09:51,497
I think Bam, though,
was kind of taken
266
00:09:51,499 --> 00:09:54,926
into taking care of the ranch
a little bit more and try
and get it sustained.
267
00:09:55,003 --> 00:09:57,220
[Bam] This is not
how I would like to repair i
268
00:09:57,264 --> 00:09:58,930
But for now,
I just need it to hold up.
269
00:09:59,007 --> 00:10:00,974
So I'm just
wiring it together.
270
00:10:01,051 --> 00:10:03,560
Even though the fire seems
like it was a while ago,
271
00:10:03,604 --> 00:10:05,979
it was devastating to such
a degree
272
00:10:05,981 --> 00:10:09,608
that has definitely
slowed us down quite a bit.
273
00:10:09,684 --> 00:10:11,776
Even right now,
we're still really feeling i
274
00:10:11,778 --> 00:10:13,445
because of the amount
of things that we lost,
275
00:10:13,447 --> 00:10:16,448
the amount of lumber,
and the barn that we lost
276
00:10:16,450 --> 00:10:19,951
and everything
that's just not usable now
because of the fire.
277
00:10:22,497 --> 00:10:24,030
[narrator] But this season,
278
00:10:24,032 --> 00:10:26,666
with several members
of the pack away in Alaska,
279
00:10:26,701 --> 00:10:28,168
Bam's work on the mountain
280
00:10:28,170 --> 00:10:31,630
has left his own house plan
in the lurch.
281
00:10:31,632 --> 00:10:33,465
So what are we starting with?
282
00:10:33,541 --> 00:10:36,384
Well, as I understand it,
this area
283
00:10:36,386 --> 00:10:39,054
is where his house
is supposed to go.
284
00:10:39,056 --> 00:10:42,974
[narrator] And Brothers Bea
and Gabe offer to lend a han
285
00:10:42,976 --> 00:10:44,267
[Gabe] Bam spread himself
really thin,
286
00:10:44,269 --> 00:10:46,561
completely put himself
on the backburner.
287
00:10:46,563 --> 00:10:48,313
So Bear and I got together
and I was like,
288
00:10:48,315 --> 00:10:49,898
"Let's do something for Bam."
289
00:10:49,900 --> 00:10:51,608
So we went up
to clear his land.
290
00:10:51,610 --> 00:10:52,776
He didn't even ask.
291
00:10:52,819 --> 00:10:53,943
He didn't have
to ask for help.
292
00:10:53,945 --> 00:10:55,395
We just knew
that he needed it.
293
00:10:55,471 --> 00:10:57,947
And we... and we took that
initiative to help him out.
294
00:10:58,950 --> 00:11:00,200
I think
he's going to be ecstatic
295
00:11:00,202 --> 00:11:03,036
if we can clear it off,
lope it off.
296
00:11:03,113 --> 00:11:04,996
So then right now,
we're just going to cut
all this down?
297
00:11:04,998 --> 00:11:06,247
Yep.
298
00:11:06,324 --> 00:11:07,832
Well, enough talk
and let's get to cutting.
299
00:11:07,834 --> 00:11:09,358
Let's hack it down.
300
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,045
Be careful with the mullein,
it's in that time of life
301
00:11:12,047 --> 00:11:13,630
where it's shooting
the spores out.
302
00:11:13,632 --> 00:11:15,256
Yeah, I noticed that,
actually.
303
00:11:19,388 --> 00:11:20,679
Oh, bro.
304
00:11:20,681 --> 00:11:22,764
-Yo.
-I'm dying.
305
00:11:22,766 --> 00:11:24,099
Hot and I can't breathe.
306
00:11:24,101 --> 00:11:26,518
That mullein was so bad.
307
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,187
You hack
one of those dry stocks
and all of a sudden,
308
00:11:29,264 --> 00:11:31,314
all these spores
pop off of it.
309
00:11:31,316 --> 00:11:33,858
-They get it in your throat?
-Yep.
310
00:11:33,860 --> 00:11:35,151
You can't breathe.
311
00:11:35,195 --> 00:11:36,986
And it just gets in the eyes.
312
00:11:36,988 --> 00:11:39,739
And it's just like
just hacking bushes.
313
00:11:44,705 --> 00:11:46,037
So this is the corner.
314
00:11:47,374 --> 00:11:50,291
This will be one of the...
315
00:11:50,293 --> 00:11:54,003
[sneezes]
316
00:11:54,005 --> 00:11:55,296
[Bear indistinctly]
317
00:11:55,373 --> 00:11:57,716
Thank you. Mullein.
318
00:11:57,751 --> 00:11:59,625
Who knew?
319
00:12:04,391 --> 00:12:07,308
During certain times
of the season,
mullein is no problem.
320
00:12:07,385 --> 00:12:09,185
Makes for good bush
toilet paper.
321
00:12:09,187 --> 00:12:11,354
-And tea.
-And a tea.
322
00:12:12,983 --> 00:12:14,941
Mullein
and it's different stages.
323
00:12:14,943 --> 00:12:20,029
Just goes from like cute
to worse to really bad.
324
00:12:20,031 --> 00:12:22,699
-Oh, it's nasty.
-That, it is.
325
00:12:22,743 --> 00:12:24,367
But I think
I pretty much did it.
326
00:12:24,369 --> 00:12:25,952
Looks good.
327
00:12:25,954 --> 00:12:28,288
Oh, it means a lot to me,
that Bear and Gabe
328
00:12:28,290 --> 00:12:31,124
would go out there working
on my stuff like that
when I wasn't there.
329
00:12:32,878 --> 00:12:34,669
It's such a hard thing
they were doing.
330
00:12:34,671 --> 00:12:36,546
Easy in one way,
but killer in another.
331
00:12:36,590 --> 00:12:37,797
And it meant a lot to me.
332
00:12:37,799 --> 00:12:40,759
And it warmed
the cockles of me heart.
333
00:12:40,761 --> 00:12:42,552
Go clean out your lungs.
334
00:12:42,554 --> 00:12:45,054
Yep. I'm on that. And my eyes.
335
00:12:46,057 --> 00:12:47,256
[narrator] Coming up.
336
00:12:47,258 --> 00:12:49,100
I got hit in the head
so many times.
337
00:12:49,102 --> 00:12:52,020
The last one changed
my brain chemistry
338
00:12:52,022 --> 00:12:54,522
to the point of altering
my taste buds.
339
00:12:54,900 --> 00:12:56,107
Give those a try.
340
00:12:56,109 --> 00:12:58,026
I like spicy, but whoa.
341
00:13:03,992 --> 00:13:06,034
[Noah]
We're going up in the time
that the bears
342
00:13:06,036 --> 00:13:07,160
are going to be waking up
and hungry.
343
00:13:07,162 --> 00:13:08,870
[Snowbird]
Waking up and hungry.
344
00:13:08,947 --> 00:13:10,497
And we all look delicious.
345
00:13:10,499 --> 00:13:12,665
I know.
Especially you three.
346
00:13:12,667 --> 00:13:14,959
[narrator] The Browns set
ambitious new goals
347
00:13:14,961 --> 00:13:16,795
in their personal lives,
348
00:13:16,797 --> 00:13:18,922
where they face
unexpected challenges
349
00:13:18,965 --> 00:13:21,466
around every turn.
350
00:13:21,543 --> 00:13:23,134
So close.
351
00:13:23,136 --> 00:13:24,761
[narrator] But not all
of the siblings spend the ye
352
00:13:24,763 --> 00:13:26,763
building on the mountain.
353
00:13:26,765 --> 00:13:31,059
Others look
to their old home state
for opportunities.
354
00:13:31,135 --> 00:13:33,895
-One, two, three.
-Alaska!
355
00:13:33,972 --> 00:13:36,147
You know,
I didn't specifically know
356
00:13:36,224 --> 00:13:38,066
what I was looking
for on the trip.
357
00:13:38,068 --> 00:13:40,610
But I definitely thought
the Alaska
358
00:13:40,654 --> 00:13:43,154
will help answer
a lot of my questions.
359
00:13:43,156 --> 00:13:44,656
Trying to think about
the decisions
360
00:13:44,658 --> 00:13:46,533
to, like, start, like,
a family or not.
361
00:13:46,609 --> 00:13:49,160
After the wildfire, Noah
and I had to sit down
362
00:13:49,162 --> 00:13:50,703
and collectively figure out
363
00:13:50,705 --> 00:13:52,288
what was the best thing
for our family,
364
00:13:52,332 --> 00:13:55,083
and we made the decision
365
00:13:55,085 --> 00:13:59,295
to buy a new cabin elsewhere
which is completely set up.
366
00:13:59,297 --> 00:14:02,257
But that meant now
we have time
367
00:14:02,333 --> 00:14:05,510
to put to somewhere better,
like Alaska.
368
00:14:07,472 --> 00:14:10,473
[narrator] Before embarking
on the monumental journey,
369
00:14:10,475 --> 00:14:14,102
the siblings tie up importan
loose ends on the ranch.
370
00:14:14,104 --> 00:14:16,896
Well, it's your tree,
why don't you start her off?
371
00:14:16,898 --> 00:14:18,648
[narrator]
And for sister Bird,
372
00:14:18,692 --> 00:14:20,775
that means
the sentimental task
373
00:14:20,777 --> 00:14:24,863
of felling the dead tree
that supported her Birdhouse
374
00:14:24,865 --> 00:14:27,949
For me, it was important
to get my Birdhouse tree down
375
00:14:27,951 --> 00:14:29,516
before Alaska
376
00:14:29,518 --> 00:14:32,328
just because every time I go
to my property and everything,
377
00:14:32,372 --> 00:14:33,538
you know, my tree
would just be there,
378
00:14:33,540 --> 00:14:35,623
and the Birdhouse wouldn't be.
379
00:14:35,625 --> 00:14:38,209
And I feel like it's, like,
able to give a fresh start.
380
00:14:38,211 --> 00:14:40,503
Let go! Let go!
381
00:14:40,547 --> 00:14:44,048
[narrator] Lost footage
reveals that taking it down
382
00:14:44,050 --> 00:14:45,675
is only half the battle.
383
00:14:45,677 --> 00:14:48,428
I was just trying to drag
my tree to the road
384
00:14:48,430 --> 00:14:51,806
so we can then take it down
mountain and mill
it into lumber.
385
00:14:51,883 --> 00:14:55,476
I didn't... did not realize
how big the tree was.
386
00:14:55,478 --> 00:14:57,353
It's a big tree.
It's a big tree.
387
00:14:58,565 --> 00:15:01,232
Okay. Do we want to try
and actually move it now?
388
00:15:01,234 --> 00:15:03,526
Yeah. Let's just
throw it on his shoulder.
389
00:15:03,528 --> 00:15:06,404
This won't even make it turn,
going down the mountain.
390
00:15:06,406 --> 00:15:08,907
[Noah] Eli, what do you think
we should do?
391
00:15:08,909 --> 00:15:11,034
-[Eli] Cut it to pieces.
-Cut it to pieces?
392
00:15:11,077 --> 00:15:12,994
-Cut it, okay.
-To 12-foot pieces.
393
00:15:12,996 --> 00:15:16,122
-[Eli] Yes.
-I say, because we don't have
a tape measure.
394
00:15:16,124 --> 00:15:19,208
In order to equal 12 feet,
it would be about--
395
00:15:20,754 --> 00:15:22,462
-[Snowbird] Eli.
-[Noah] Eli, come here, buddy.
396
00:15:22,464 --> 00:15:23,755
Ready?
397
00:15:23,757 --> 00:15:26,424
-You have to mark it.
-Okay. Steady now.
398
00:15:26,426 --> 00:15:27,717
-I got you, buddy.
-Stay steady.
399
00:15:27,761 --> 00:15:30,303
Hold on. My way.
My way. Okay.
400
00:15:30,305 --> 00:15:31,763
When measuring the log to see
401
00:15:31,765 --> 00:15:33,473
where exactly
I wanted to cut it,
402
00:15:33,475 --> 00:15:36,100
to know how big
a boards I wanted,
403
00:15:36,102 --> 00:15:38,019
we just did Eli length.
404
00:15:38,021 --> 00:15:39,312
Okay, we're good.
405
00:15:39,314 --> 00:15:41,689
Good job,
little tape measurer.
406
00:15:41,691 --> 00:15:42,899
That's effective
407
00:15:42,901 --> 00:15:44,025
if you don't have
a tape measure
408
00:15:44,102 --> 00:15:45,443
or anything because, you know,
409
00:15:45,445 --> 00:15:47,403
Noah knows roughly
how tall he is.
410
00:15:47,405 --> 00:15:49,113
So you just add those up
411
00:15:49,115 --> 00:15:52,200
as if you were using
a tape measure
and Eli gets to have fun.
412
00:15:53,787 --> 00:15:55,828
One, two, three.
413
00:15:55,830 --> 00:15:56,955
One, two.
414
00:15:58,124 --> 00:15:59,791
[indistinct]
415
00:16:00,919 --> 00:16:02,251
A little anti-climatic.
416
00:16:02,253 --> 00:16:04,879
Now it's going,
and then she stops.
417
00:16:04,881 --> 00:16:06,255
So no matter how big it is,
418
00:16:06,257 --> 00:16:08,257
if it's round
and you're going downhill,
419
00:16:08,301 --> 00:16:10,593
if you can get it to roll,
you're good.
420
00:16:10,595 --> 00:16:12,136
But we had
branches sticking out,
421
00:16:12,138 --> 00:16:13,554
and then there were
branches that,
422
00:16:13,631 --> 00:16:16,474
like, bed into the ground
once we cut it.
423
00:16:16,551 --> 00:16:19,060
Any time you want
to clean that off,
424
00:16:19,062 --> 00:16:22,063
you want to... you want to...
you want to limit.
425
00:16:22,140 --> 00:16:23,940
We limited it but not enough.
426
00:16:24,442 --> 00:16:26,109
One, two, three.
427
00:16:26,569 --> 00:16:27,777
[grunts]
428
00:16:28,488 --> 00:16:30,363
One, two, three.
429
00:16:32,158 --> 00:16:33,741
Basically,
what we did in order
430
00:16:33,818 --> 00:16:35,368
to be able to get
the log further down
431
00:16:35,370 --> 00:16:38,204
and get it unstuck
is using just logs
432
00:16:38,206 --> 00:16:40,581
and beams as a lever to be
able to get it underneath
433
00:16:40,583 --> 00:16:42,500
and just do it over.
434
00:16:43,545 --> 00:16:45,086
[Snowbird] Okay.
435
00:16:45,163 --> 00:16:48,214
I think here,
pull the truck up,
436
00:16:48,291 --> 00:16:50,383
and we'll get
the last of it.
437
00:16:50,460 --> 00:16:51,509
Yeah.
438
00:16:52,345 --> 00:16:53,845
Away we go.
439
00:16:53,847 --> 00:16:55,722
You know, getting
the tree down the mountain,
440
00:16:55,724 --> 00:16:58,433
I was a little excited.
A little bittersweet.
441
00:16:58,435 --> 00:17:01,185
One, two, three!
442
00:17:01,262 --> 00:17:02,395
One more.
443
00:17:02,472 --> 00:17:03,896
Keep it coming.
Keep it coming.
444
00:17:03,973 --> 00:17:04,880
It's good now.
It's good now.
445
00:17:04,882 --> 00:17:06,582
That's always good, you know,
446
00:17:06,584 --> 00:17:08,985
get rid of the burn
in the past
and start of something new.
447
00:17:09,029 --> 00:17:10,653
Oh, good.
448
00:17:10,655 --> 00:17:12,605
Ready to go, guys.
449
00:17:17,412 --> 00:17:20,538
[narrator]
With the important mission
of finding property in Alask
450
00:17:20,540 --> 00:17:22,265
just ahead,
451
00:17:22,267 --> 00:17:25,793
Noah must prepare his family
temporary Washington home
452
00:17:25,795 --> 00:17:28,296
for his month-long absence.
453
00:17:28,298 --> 00:17:31,174
Before I was able
to feel comfortable
going on the trip,
454
00:17:31,176 --> 00:17:32,533
just Eli and I,
455
00:17:32,535 --> 00:17:34,293
I wanted to make sure
that I automated
456
00:17:34,295 --> 00:17:37,638
as much as I could,
fix the fences,
secure the things,
457
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,390
stocked up on hay and feed,
458
00:17:39,392 --> 00:17:42,393
and pretty much everything
you would do on a ranch
459
00:17:42,395 --> 00:17:44,562
to get it self-sufficient.
460
00:17:44,597 --> 00:17:46,105
Eli, lower the bucket.
461
00:17:47,692 --> 00:17:48,816
Good.
462
00:17:48,818 --> 00:17:50,943
[narrator]
But a careless mistake
463
00:17:50,945 --> 00:17:54,113
threatens to derail the trip
464
00:17:54,115 --> 00:17:56,532
[Rhain] No, really.
How did this happen?
465
00:17:56,576 --> 00:17:57,992
Did you dent it?
466
00:17:58,069 --> 00:17:59,744
I don't know.
I don't remember.
467
00:17:59,821 --> 00:18:01,204
Oh, my gosh.
468
00:18:02,582 --> 00:18:03,873
[Noah]
Before I left for Alaska,
469
00:18:03,875 --> 00:18:06,125
when I was working
on one of the fences,
470
00:18:06,202 --> 00:18:09,670
I bonked myself in the head
with a post hole digger.
471
00:18:09,672 --> 00:18:12,840
You actually see the dent
in my head where it is.
472
00:18:12,842 --> 00:18:15,593
I mean, it hurt, my ears
were ringing and everything.
473
00:18:15,670 --> 00:18:17,929
[Noah speaking]
474
00:18:18,005 --> 00:18:19,597
I had a few concussions.
475
00:18:19,674 --> 00:18:21,248
Probably not a great thing.
476
00:18:21,250 --> 00:18:22,934
-It's either
I laugh about it or cry...
-It's not funny.
477
00:18:22,936 --> 00:18:26,062
...that I've had
more concussions
than most boxers.
478
00:18:26,064 --> 00:18:29,107
It was just the concussion
that put me over the edge.
479
00:18:29,109 --> 00:18:31,984
And I had a condition called
480
00:18:31,986 --> 00:18:34,612
persistent post-concussive
syndrome,
481
00:18:35,949 --> 00:18:38,616
basically
a semi-permanent concussion.
482
00:18:38,618 --> 00:18:41,702
It's the reason
I shaved my goatee.
483
00:18:41,779 --> 00:18:43,121
Yes, I'm aware.
484
00:18:43,197 --> 00:18:44,622
Apparently, a lot of the...
485
00:18:44,624 --> 00:18:48,584
the changes of taste
and instinct and likes,
486
00:18:48,586 --> 00:18:53,798
and it can last anywhere
from four weeks, a year,
to life.
487
00:18:53,875 --> 00:18:58,302
[narrator]
While Noah recovers in time
to scout property in Alaska
488
00:18:58,304 --> 00:19:00,429
before he leaves,
Rhain Alisha
489
00:19:00,473 --> 00:19:03,182
puts his new cravings
to the test.
490
00:19:03,184 --> 00:19:07,270
You're telling me
you like spicy food?
491
00:19:07,272 --> 00:19:10,481
I'm telling you that I've been
hit in the head so many times,
492
00:19:10,483 --> 00:19:14,694
and the last one has changed
my brain chemistry
493
00:19:14,696 --> 00:19:17,029
to the point of altering
my taste buds.
494
00:19:17,031 --> 00:19:18,614
Is that even a thing?
495
00:19:18,658 --> 00:19:19,991
Apparently so.
496
00:19:19,993 --> 00:19:22,118
Well, give those a try.
497
00:19:23,621 --> 00:19:25,329
I like spicy, but whoa.
498
00:19:29,711 --> 00:19:31,335
What do you think?
499
00:19:31,337 --> 00:19:33,713
I actually...
they're pretty tasty.
500
00:19:33,965 --> 00:19:35,047
Really?
501
00:19:36,134 --> 00:19:37,566
That's weird.
502
00:19:37,568 --> 00:19:41,762
I used to hate spicy food,
and now I love spicy food.
503
00:19:41,839 --> 00:19:44,307
[Rhain] Please be
careful 'cause
some of these are really hot.
504
00:19:47,729 --> 00:19:49,011
[Noah]
I actually like jalapenos.
505
00:19:49,022 --> 00:19:50,897
I'll eat them raw
if I have the opportunity.
506
00:19:50,899 --> 00:19:53,107
Seriously?
I haven't seen that one yet.
507
00:19:53,184 --> 00:19:54,317
Yes. Super weird.
508
00:19:54,360 --> 00:19:55,651
Oh, boy.
509
00:19:55,686 --> 00:19:56,861
Too much.
510
00:19:59,741 --> 00:20:01,949
What are you doing?
511
00:20:02,026 --> 00:20:04,243
It's just like a laundry list
of things that are different,
512
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,622
and I decided
to just start embracing it.
513
00:20:07,624 --> 00:20:11,667
Well, I have pickles.
514
00:20:14,672 --> 00:20:16,881
I've always had a hatred
for pickles,
515
00:20:16,883 --> 00:20:20,218
even the smell of pickles
or pickles flavored things,
516
00:20:20,253 --> 00:20:22,261
I just would start
to throw up.
517
00:20:22,338 --> 00:20:24,430
Couldn't even eat a hamburger
that had a pickle on it,
518
00:20:24,432 --> 00:20:25,348
even after removing
the pickle.
519
00:20:25,350 --> 00:20:27,016
Mm-hmm. True.
520
00:20:28,311 --> 00:20:30,019
[Noah] Who am I without
my hatred of pickles?
521
00:20:30,063 --> 00:20:31,896
[Rhain laughs]
522
00:20:31,898 --> 00:20:34,398
My mother
would have a heart attack
if she saw me eat a pickle.
523
00:20:36,236 --> 00:20:37,610
[Rhain] I cannot see it.
524
00:20:40,740 --> 00:20:42,365
What do you think?
525
00:20:43,326 --> 00:20:47,954
I think it would be good
on a tuna salad sandwich.
526
00:20:49,832 --> 00:20:52,959
And I don't like
to miss out on sandwiches.
527
00:20:52,994 --> 00:20:54,252
I'll admit
there are a few times
528
00:20:54,254 --> 00:20:55,753
during the Alaska trip
where I didn't get
529
00:20:55,755 --> 00:20:58,714
enough sleep
and I could feel it.
530
00:20:58,716 --> 00:21:00,800
I could tell my memory
was slipping.
531
00:21:00,876 --> 00:21:03,928
I'd be tired. Just kind of
exhausted feeling.
532
00:21:03,930 --> 00:21:06,639
Ah, but, like,
different than needing
sleep exhausted.
533
00:21:06,641 --> 00:21:08,081
More of a...
534
00:21:08,083 --> 00:21:12,270
more of a dear God,
help me, I'm dying exhausted.
535
00:21:12,272 --> 00:21:15,940
I don't know I just
have these cravings
for things I've never had.
536
00:21:17,110 --> 00:21:19,110
Do you like vegetables?
I wish I had broccoli.
537
00:21:19,186 --> 00:21:20,736
Do you want
to try an avocado?
538
00:21:20,738 --> 00:21:23,197
Sure. Do you...
Can I put a hot sauce on it?
539
00:21:23,199 --> 00:21:25,783
[Rhain] Oh, God.
What are you, pregnant now?
540
00:21:29,998 --> 00:21:31,080
[Gabe] Are you excited?
541
00:21:31,082 --> 00:21:32,581
[Snowbird] Very.
542
00:21:32,667 --> 00:21:35,042
But a little nervous.
A little excited.
543
00:21:35,044 --> 00:21:36,377
What?
544
00:21:36,454 --> 00:21:37,753
You're not taking
a watermelon?
545
00:21:37,755 --> 00:21:38,963
I am taking a watermelon.
546
00:21:38,965 --> 00:21:40,881
Don't even touch
my watermelon.
547
00:21:42,719 --> 00:21:44,802
[narrator] With the arrival
of spring,
548
00:21:44,879 --> 00:21:46,554
several members
of the pack prepare
549
00:21:46,556 --> 00:21:50,224
for an important journey
back to Alaska.
550
00:21:50,226 --> 00:21:52,184
[Noah] I definitely missed i
more than I thought I would
551
00:21:52,261 --> 00:21:53,719
Just awesome.
552
00:21:53,721 --> 00:21:57,523
The air feels different
here than it does down south.
553
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,151
[narrator] The goals
for the trip are ambitious
554
00:22:00,153 --> 00:22:04,322
and the siblings come face
to face with big challenges
555
00:22:05,783 --> 00:22:07,575
Noah!
556
00:22:07,651 --> 00:22:09,535
[Noah] What was that?
557
00:22:09,537 --> 00:22:10,661
-Did you do that?
-[Rain] No.
558
00:22:10,663 --> 00:22:12,330
I didn't do that.
559
00:22:13,833 --> 00:22:17,209
With the expectations we ha
going into the Alaska trip.
560
00:22:17,211 --> 00:22:19,337
It was a little different
by the end of it.
561
00:22:19,339 --> 00:22:22,048
[Gabe] Yeah, it definitely
took some turns that
we weren't ready for.
562
00:22:22,050 --> 00:22:24,050
No, never even expected.
563
00:22:25,553 --> 00:22:27,720
[narrator] And when
the integrity anchors near
564
00:22:27,722 --> 00:22:30,264
a remote island
after an engine issue,
565
00:22:30,266 --> 00:22:32,892
Bird and Rain take
the opportunity
566
00:22:32,894 --> 00:22:35,519
to forage for an easy meal.
567
00:22:35,596 --> 00:22:36,979
[Noah] How are we getting
on the boat?
568
00:22:36,981 --> 00:22:40,149
Maybe if Noah
just kind of lower me in.
569
00:22:40,151 --> 00:22:41,600
-Oh, that work.
-Whoo!
570
00:22:41,602 --> 00:22:43,694
-How is that? Did that hurt?
-No, it actually didn't.
571
00:22:43,696 --> 00:22:46,197
Okay, give me a five.
572
00:22:46,199 --> 00:22:48,699
Feels like when we had
the anchor outside
of Admiralty,
573
00:22:48,701 --> 00:22:51,744
Rain and I was sitting around
and we're like, you know,
we're in Alaska.
574
00:22:51,821 --> 00:22:53,371
I'm not just gonna sit on
the integrity
575
00:22:53,373 --> 00:22:55,247
when there's an island
right there
576
00:22:55,324 --> 00:22:57,917
and we have
a mostly perfectly good skiff.
577
00:22:57,993 --> 00:23:00,503
So, yeah, we took
the opportunity
to explore the island.
578
00:23:00,546 --> 00:23:03,631
Bring it back in one piece.
579
00:23:03,633 --> 00:23:07,551
[Snowbird] Growing up,
we'd like island hop and lik
look for food to eat.
580
00:23:07,553 --> 00:23:10,471
[Gabe] You can just walk
through the woods
and make a salad.
581
00:23:10,548 --> 00:23:12,723
[Snowbird] I haven't had
a dear heart
in like seven years.
582
00:23:13,559 --> 00:23:15,393
[Snowbird speaking]
583
00:23:15,395 --> 00:23:17,019
But it's definitely good
as good as I remember.
584
00:23:17,021 --> 00:23:18,521
Maybe better. Oh, my God.
585
00:23:18,523 --> 00:23:20,689
I think it is better,
actually.
586
00:23:23,069 --> 00:23:26,320
[Snowbird] There's nothing
more natural than licking
this rock like this.
587
00:23:26,322 --> 00:23:28,114
And getting water from it?
588
00:23:29,617 --> 00:23:31,450
You're not gonna bring
Bird back to the boat,
589
00:23:31,485 --> 00:23:33,026
you're gonna bring
a wild animal.
590
00:23:33,028 --> 00:23:35,913
But, you know, going on
to any island in Alaska
591
00:23:35,915 --> 00:23:39,083
that you don't know
when the last time
someone was there,
592
00:23:39,085 --> 00:23:41,067
there's always
gonna be danger.
593
00:23:41,069 --> 00:23:44,588
You better have a bag
of grenades and a .50 cal
if you're gonna feel safe.
594
00:23:44,665 --> 00:23:48,509
[narrator] In this never
before seen footage
on Admiralty Island.
595
00:23:48,511 --> 00:23:51,345
No return to Alaska
would be complete
596
00:23:51,422 --> 00:23:55,808
without a run in
with a familiar apex predato
597
00:23:55,885 --> 00:23:57,059
[Snowbird] Look there.
598
00:23:57,061 --> 00:23:58,727
[Rain] Bear mess.
599
00:23:58,729 --> 00:24:00,563
[Snowbird] That doesn't seem
like a small bear.
600
00:24:00,565 --> 00:24:01,897
[Rain] No.
601
00:24:03,568 --> 00:24:04,683
Oh, do you see that?
602
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,193
[Snowbird] And these
are like fresh.
603
00:24:06,270 --> 00:24:08,404
I mean, this is obviously
probably a bear path,
604
00:24:08,406 --> 00:24:12,992
but it feels a bit like
we're tracking the bear.
605
00:24:12,994 --> 00:24:14,493
Kind of feel like...
606
00:24:18,124 --> 00:24:20,207
[rustling]
607
00:24:20,209 --> 00:24:22,126
[Snowbird speaking]
608
00:24:22,203 --> 00:24:24,503
Feels like when Rain
and I were walking
along the creek bed,
609
00:24:24,580 --> 00:24:26,005
and then all of a sudden
there's, like, a snap.
610
00:24:26,007 --> 00:24:28,716
I'm like, "Wait a second,
I recognize that snap."
611
00:24:28,718 --> 00:24:30,134
Growing up the way
that we did,
612
00:24:30,136 --> 00:24:33,596
you know, your mind
always goes to a predator.
613
00:24:33,598 --> 00:24:35,139
-You know, it's a big bear.
-That it is.
614
00:24:35,766 --> 00:24:37,766
[Snowbird speaking]
615
00:24:37,768 --> 00:24:40,269
[Snowbird] Let's not test
our fate, you know.
616
00:24:40,313 --> 00:24:41,854
[Snowbird speaking]
617
00:24:41,856 --> 00:24:43,105
I have the gun.
618
00:24:43,107 --> 00:24:44,732
-I'm the older sister.
-I don't care.
619
00:24:44,734 --> 00:24:45,816
I have the gun.
620
00:24:45,893 --> 00:24:47,710
You're also hurt.
621
00:24:50,031 --> 00:24:52,198
[Snowbird] Rain and I had ju
come to the conclusion that
622
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,826
like, even if it wasn't
the bear and it was a deer
or just anything, it...
623
00:24:55,903 --> 00:24:57,786
it's always better
to be safe than sorry.
624
00:24:57,788 --> 00:25:00,331
You know, I would rather
go back to the boat
625
00:25:00,333 --> 00:25:03,417
than continue foraging
for deer hearts
and get eaten by a bear.
626
00:25:03,419 --> 00:25:05,669
That's smart.
627
00:25:05,671 --> 00:25:07,588
[Snowbird] This is his island.
We got our deer heart.
628
00:25:07,590 --> 00:25:09,173
We got our a little bit
of adventure.
629
00:25:09,250 --> 00:25:11,425
Let's just let him be
and he'll let us be.
630
00:25:11,427 --> 00:25:13,135
[Rain] Yeah.
631
00:25:20,895 --> 00:25:23,938
Well, it definitely
has a great view,
but it's Alaska.
632
00:25:23,940 --> 00:25:26,148
That goes without saying.
633
00:25:26,150 --> 00:25:28,275
[narrator] Before Noah
finds the perfect home
634
00:25:28,277 --> 00:25:30,945
for his family
in Meyers Chuck, Alaska.
635
00:25:30,947 --> 00:25:33,572
He nearly loses hope
when viewing
636
00:25:33,574 --> 00:25:36,200
several properties
throughout the southeast.
637
00:25:36,827 --> 00:25:38,536
Well, the house is nice.
638
00:25:38,538 --> 00:25:40,371
I like the solar panels.
639
00:25:40,373 --> 00:25:42,540
My wife would definitely
like the hot tub.
640
00:25:42,542 --> 00:25:45,125
[narrator] And in this
unaired scene,
641
00:25:45,127 --> 00:25:48,963
his property search gets of
on the wrong foot in Haines
642
00:25:52,218 --> 00:25:53,676
Nice house.
643
00:25:55,721 --> 00:25:57,638
Oh, the window, though.
644
00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,139
That's a shame.
645
00:26:00,601 --> 00:26:02,601
Oh, that's just a nice stairs.
646
00:26:02,603 --> 00:26:03,727
Dang.
647
00:26:03,804 --> 00:26:05,813
However not toddler safe.
648
00:26:07,108 --> 00:26:09,650
One of the things
that we're looking for is...
649
00:26:09,652 --> 00:26:11,193
is something
we can make our own.
650
00:26:11,195 --> 00:26:12,319
Right.
651
00:26:12,396 --> 00:26:15,030
Something that still needs
to be done.
652
00:26:16,075 --> 00:26:18,325
Something like our mark on.
653
00:26:18,327 --> 00:26:21,078
The first property
I looked at up the chill cat
654
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,080
and hangs was completely don
655
00:26:23,157 --> 00:26:24,540
It was completely
solar powered.
656
00:26:24,542 --> 00:26:26,834
It was completely perfect.
657
00:26:26,910 --> 00:26:29,253
But the thing with it is,
if you have a house
658
00:26:29,330 --> 00:26:32,548
that's nice and that set up,
then you won't want to build
659
00:26:32,550 --> 00:26:34,166
your own house.
660
00:26:34,168 --> 00:26:38,887
Dang. Something I always check
when I'm looking for a house.
661
00:26:38,889 --> 00:26:42,391
If I was at the bedroom,
how much noise would I make
662
00:26:42,393 --> 00:26:45,769
to get to the kitchen
to check for a snack?
663
00:26:45,846 --> 00:26:49,231
Okay. So that's a noisy step.
I'd have to go over that one.
664
00:26:49,275 --> 00:26:50,941
And then the rest
of the floor,
665
00:26:50,943 --> 00:26:54,236
if it's just as squeaky,
we'd have a problem.
666
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:55,404
So far, so good.
667
00:26:55,448 --> 00:26:57,531
I'm almost to it. Almost.
668
00:26:59,035 --> 00:27:02,244
It... You know, I can make it,
669
00:27:02,246 --> 00:27:04,455
that's not enough
to wake anyone.
670
00:27:06,250 --> 00:27:09,126
Of course,
this is the first house
we've looked at.
671
00:27:09,203 --> 00:27:14,923
But if you can look out
your window and see houses,
672
00:27:14,925 --> 00:27:17,551
that's not the bush,
it's a neighborhood.
673
00:27:17,553 --> 00:27:21,472
If you move to Alaska,
it's usually 'cause you just
want to be left alone.
674
00:27:21,474 --> 00:27:23,140
I want to be able to stand
on my porch,
675
00:27:23,142 --> 00:27:26,101
butt naked and put off
a couple of rounds
into my target.
676
00:27:26,103 --> 00:27:29,438
If I'm too close to people
then one of those two things
677
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,398
gonna offend someone.
678
00:27:32,610 --> 00:27:34,026
She got it.
679
00:27:35,029 --> 00:27:37,905
The house scored well
in the midnight snack test,
680
00:27:37,907 --> 00:27:39,281
but the neighbors
are too close.
681
00:27:39,283 --> 00:27:41,283
I'm looking at them.
682
00:27:41,285 --> 00:27:43,118
And the place is finished.
683
00:27:44,205 --> 00:27:46,538
There isn't really anything
I think of that we could do
684
00:27:46,615 --> 00:27:48,082
or fix or make our own.
685
00:27:48,084 --> 00:27:50,000
And that's one
of the important things
686
00:27:50,002 --> 00:27:52,503
that this is about making
Alaska our home.
687
00:27:53,005 --> 00:27:54,880
This place is awesome.
688
00:27:54,882 --> 00:27:56,256
Just not for us.
689
00:28:05,184 --> 00:28:10,229
Yo, Bear! Brutus
and the little bull are loose.
690
00:28:10,231 --> 00:28:12,189
[narrator] It's a year full
of obstacles
691
00:28:12,191 --> 00:28:15,067
for the Brown family
as they've pushed themselve
692
00:28:15,144 --> 00:28:19,405
out of their comfort zones
and into new chapters
of their lives.
693
00:28:19,407 --> 00:28:21,532
[Gabe] Off and on North
Star Ranch and just like
694
00:28:21,534 --> 00:28:25,119
everywhere else in our life,
the harder the struggle,
the bigger the payoff.
695
00:28:25,121 --> 00:28:27,830
[narrator] But progress on
the mountain can never stop
696
00:28:27,832 --> 00:28:30,124
Oh, my goodness.
697
00:28:30,126 --> 00:28:32,126
Isn't it adorable?
698
00:28:32,128 --> 00:28:35,963
[narrator] As the family tries
to manage a growing fleet
of livestock.
699
00:28:36,039 --> 00:28:37,047
[Gabe] Gently.
700
00:28:37,049 --> 00:28:38,507
-Ease it.
-Gently.
701
00:28:38,551 --> 00:28:39,633
-Ease it.
-Hold, hold, hold.
702
00:28:39,710 --> 00:28:40,926
[Gabe] And let go.
703
00:28:42,888 --> 00:28:44,304
Piece of cake.
704
00:28:44,306 --> 00:28:46,515
[Bam]
Let's just roll it towards
the truck.
705
00:28:46,517 --> 00:28:49,101
[narrator] To protect
their increased grain supply
706
00:28:49,103 --> 00:28:53,105
Bam and Gabe acquire
an old silo for their ranch
707
00:28:53,182 --> 00:28:55,065
Having the silo
makes it where the...
708
00:28:55,067 --> 00:28:56,308
the bears
can't get in the food,
709
00:28:56,310 --> 00:28:57,735
the animals
can't get to the food,
710
00:28:57,737 --> 00:28:59,236
is keeping it safe
from the weather.
711
00:28:59,238 --> 00:29:01,129
It's another thing making
North Star Ranch
712
00:29:01,131 --> 00:29:04,032
that much closer to being able
to operate like
a real ranch should.
713
00:29:04,034 --> 00:29:06,994
-Are we good then?
-I think so.
714
00:29:07,070 --> 00:29:10,247
[narrator] But it's Gabe
who takes on
the solo responsibility
715
00:29:10,249 --> 00:29:13,250
of transporting it back
to the mountain.
716
00:29:13,252 --> 00:29:14,168
[Bam] Take it nice and easy.
717
00:29:14,244 --> 00:29:15,735
All right.
718
00:29:15,737 --> 00:29:17,254
[Bam] Well, I actually
let Gabe drive the truck
719
00:29:17,256 --> 00:29:19,757
because I have a lot
of experience doing
those things.
720
00:29:19,833 --> 00:29:20,758
And Gabe does not.
721
00:29:20,834 --> 00:29:23,552
Let's do this.
722
00:29:23,554 --> 00:29:26,513
And there's only one way
to get experience,
and that's to do.
723
00:29:28,893 --> 00:29:30,142
[Gabe speaking]
724
00:29:30,144 --> 00:29:32,895
Taking the silo up
the mountain in the truck
725
00:29:32,897 --> 00:29:37,441
is one of the first times
I'd ever hauled anything
that big that far by myself.
726
00:29:38,319 --> 00:29:40,778
Come on. Come on. Come on.
727
00:29:40,780 --> 00:29:42,571
I told Bam
nothing would go wrong.
728
00:29:42,615 --> 00:29:44,114
But of course,
that was not the case.
729
00:29:44,950 --> 00:29:46,116
Come on.
730
00:29:46,193 --> 00:29:48,035
You gotta give him more notch.
731
00:29:49,330 --> 00:29:51,413
No, man. No, no, no, no.
732
00:29:54,210 --> 00:29:56,126
[Gabe speaking]
733
00:29:56,921 --> 00:29:58,854
I don't know
a lot about mechanics,
734
00:29:58,856 --> 00:30:02,424
but I can kind of just look
at a motor and kind of see
what's wrong.
735
00:30:02,426 --> 00:30:05,302
If it's like spurting oil,
I know that's not normal.
736
00:30:09,683 --> 00:30:12,976
I think it has been around
and it has definitely
seen better days.
737
00:30:12,978 --> 00:30:15,020
But we don't get rid
of something just
738
00:30:15,022 --> 00:30:16,772
'cause it's a little
banged up.
739
00:30:16,816 --> 00:30:18,398
Or in this case,
a lot banged up.
740
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,484
That's not good.
741
00:30:20,561 --> 00:30:21,819
I saw some of the wires
were lose.
742
00:30:21,821 --> 00:30:24,071
Now that was a problem
we had ran into before.
743
00:30:24,073 --> 00:30:26,698
I kind of figured
that might be
what's going on 'cause it...
744
00:30:26,700 --> 00:30:30,369
It didn't have the power
it should have
and it's a six cylinder.
745
00:30:30,371 --> 00:30:32,871
And so, when those connector
aren't on there,
746
00:30:32,873 --> 00:30:35,833
every connector
that comes off,
you lose a cylinder.
747
00:30:35,835 --> 00:30:38,335
So, I was driving down
the street with like
a two cylinder.
748
00:30:41,215 --> 00:30:42,548
How about slow? Slow.
749
00:30:42,624 --> 00:30:44,424
Come on. Hold, hold, hold.
750
00:30:44,426 --> 00:30:46,426
Do not go too far.
751
00:30:46,428 --> 00:30:48,887
When I got it up there,
it was a good moment.
752
00:30:48,964 --> 00:30:52,140
But when Bam and I raised it
and it was just, you know,
753
00:30:52,184 --> 00:30:54,351
sitting up there, it was...
we were ecstatic.
754
00:30:54,353 --> 00:30:57,104
I've never been so happy
in my life.
755
00:30:57,106 --> 00:30:58,522
A little more. Little more.
756
00:30:58,599 --> 00:31:00,065
Hold, hold, hold!
757
00:31:01,861 --> 00:31:04,027
[Gabe laughing]
758
00:31:04,196 --> 00:31:06,363
Yes! Yes!
759
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,032
That's nice. You did it.
760
00:31:09,034 --> 00:31:10,701
-We've done it.
-Done, done, done.
761
00:31:10,703 --> 00:31:12,518
You did it.
762
00:31:13,789 --> 00:31:17,416
There was a point
where I thought
it was coming after us, so...
763
00:31:17,492 --> 00:31:19,334
Phew. Phew.
764
00:31:21,255 --> 00:31:23,505
[narrator] Though the silo
helps the ranch contend
765
00:31:23,507 --> 00:31:26,091
with a rising
livestock population.
766
00:31:26,093 --> 00:31:28,802
[Ami] Here's my baby.
Meet your north.
767
00:31:28,879 --> 00:31:30,679
[Bam] Thought
I was your baby.
768
00:31:30,681 --> 00:31:33,473
[narrator] When Ami acquire
more horses,
769
00:31:33,550 --> 00:31:36,560
Bam is forced into action.
770
00:31:36,562 --> 00:31:38,729
[Ami] You got to make some
stables for the new horses
771
00:31:38,731 --> 00:31:39,771
that are coming.
772
00:31:39,773 --> 00:31:40,939
What?
773
00:31:41,650 --> 00:31:44,026
-Did you say new horses?
-I did.
774
00:31:44,028 --> 00:31:45,694
I'm not gonna tell you
how many, though.
775
00:31:46,363 --> 00:31:48,054
[sighs]
776
00:31:48,056 --> 00:31:50,073
[Bam] I want to build up
the ranch as much as anybody
777
00:31:50,075 --> 00:31:53,452
but we're really tackling
a lot of things
all at the same time.
778
00:31:53,454 --> 00:31:56,163
And if someone
would stop buying new horses,
779
00:31:56,239 --> 00:31:58,957
it might help on building u
the infrastructure
780
00:31:59,034 --> 00:32:02,044
before we have more things
to take care of.
781
00:32:02,046 --> 00:32:04,379
All right. We already
don't have a barn,
we have nowhere to put hay.
782
00:32:04,381 --> 00:32:05,830
We...
783
00:32:05,907 --> 00:32:07,966
-[Ami] We have to work on it.
-There are no feeders.
784
00:32:07,968 --> 00:32:11,303
You have to look a year
ahead because these mares
785
00:32:11,305 --> 00:32:13,138
will have a full next year.
786
00:32:13,215 --> 00:32:17,017
We can either decide
to keep them
or we can sell them.
787
00:32:17,094 --> 00:32:20,187
I know we have
a lot to accomplish,
a lot to build,
788
00:32:20,263 --> 00:32:24,733
but these horses are worth
a lot and their bloodlines
are phenomenal.
789
00:32:24,735 --> 00:32:26,526
So, it's a long term
investment,
790
00:32:26,603 --> 00:32:28,820
but I definitely think
that it will pay off.
791
00:32:29,281 --> 00:32:32,908
[Ami speaking]
792
00:32:32,952 --> 00:32:35,035
I have a design for wooden.
793
00:32:35,037 --> 00:32:36,787
You could make it in a day.
794
00:32:38,749 --> 00:32:41,875
[Snowbird] Bam, am I gonna
kill you if I do this?
795
00:32:41,877 --> 00:32:43,168
[Bam] Yeah. Do not do that.
796
00:32:43,245 --> 00:32:45,045
-[Snowbird] I'll kill you.
-Don't do it.
797
00:32:45,047 --> 00:32:46,296
[Snowbird] There's no one
under there.
798
00:32:46,298 --> 00:32:47,881
-Don't do it.
-Why not?
799
00:32:47,883 --> 00:32:50,425
[Bam] Lower it down slowly
and let it down.
800
00:32:52,471 --> 00:32:54,596
All right. This is the first
feeder that we're building.
801
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,807
And we're building it off
of the photo Mom gave us.
802
00:32:56,809 --> 00:32:58,308
So, this is definitely
the prototype.
803
00:32:58,385 --> 00:33:00,936
And the prototype
is always the slowest one.
804
00:33:00,938 --> 00:33:03,730
Once we get this down,
the rest of them should be
that much easier.
805
00:33:03,732 --> 00:33:06,108
[saw whirring]
806
00:33:08,153 --> 00:33:10,779
I do have to admit,
working with you,
I do the least.
807
00:33:10,781 --> 00:33:13,198
Everyone else,
I do most of it.
808
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,575
When was the last time you
and I built
something together?
809
00:33:15,577 --> 00:33:16,743
Just you and I?
810
00:33:16,745 --> 00:33:18,870
Yeah. Never?
811
00:33:19,873 --> 00:33:21,498
The majority of the time,
there were at least, like,
812
00:33:21,500 --> 00:33:23,483
three or four of us
on the job.
813
00:33:23,485 --> 00:33:25,627
[Snowbird] You know,
Bam and I just don't
work together much
814
00:33:25,671 --> 00:33:28,463
'cause I guess we just
don't see eye to eye
with a lot of things.
815
00:33:28,465 --> 00:33:30,007
[Bam] Barge
is not gonna float.
816
00:33:30,009 --> 00:33:31,800
The way that that house
is gonna hold it down.
817
00:33:31,802 --> 00:33:33,093
[Snowbird] Barge
will float, Bam.
818
00:33:33,095 --> 00:33:34,903
You have to stay positive.
819
00:33:34,905 --> 00:33:37,597
[Bam] The barge will float
but not with the house
on top of it.
820
00:33:37,674 --> 00:33:39,349
Oh, what's that?
That just popped out.
821
00:33:39,351 --> 00:33:40,392
Why would that pop out?
822
00:33:40,394 --> 00:33:42,060
-Yeah.
-That's weird.
823
00:33:43,063 --> 00:33:45,981
But there being so much
we need to do on the ranch.
824
00:33:45,983 --> 00:33:48,650
Everybody has to just
put their differences aside
825
00:33:48,694 --> 00:33:50,944
for the greater good
of the ranch.
826
00:33:50,946 --> 00:33:52,487
There we go.
827
00:33:52,489 --> 00:33:54,448
We can see if it works
and then move it around.
828
00:33:54,450 --> 00:33:55,907
[Bam] Moves it around
wherever we want to.
829
00:33:55,984 --> 00:33:57,743
[Snowbird] And then attach it
to the fence.
830
00:33:57,745 --> 00:33:59,828
[Bam] Exactly. Exactly.
So, let's get some...
831
00:33:59,830 --> 00:34:01,913
Hey, toss it in there.
832
00:34:05,502 --> 00:34:07,294
[Snowbird] Oh, my gosh.
833
00:34:07,296 --> 00:34:09,880
That is a perfect fit.
834
00:34:09,882 --> 00:34:11,840
Horse. Come on.
835
00:34:11,842 --> 00:34:14,217
[Bam] All right.
Mission accomplished.
836
00:34:14,219 --> 00:34:15,635
[Snowbird] Come here.
837
00:34:15,637 --> 00:34:16,803
Come on.
838
00:34:16,805 --> 00:34:18,513
What do you think, Kiddo?
839
00:34:18,557 --> 00:34:20,098
You know, it would appear
that we do have
840
00:34:20,100 --> 00:34:21,391
North's seal of approval.
841
00:34:21,393 --> 00:34:23,435
And since North is happy
with the horse feeder,
842
00:34:23,437 --> 00:34:25,395
I think that Mom's
gonna be happy with it.
843
00:34:25,397 --> 00:34:27,105
I think
it's a great prototype.
844
00:34:27,107 --> 00:34:28,440
I think Mom
is gonna be thrilled.
845
00:34:29,193 --> 00:34:31,026
[Ami] Hey, babies.
846
00:34:31,061 --> 00:34:32,778
Oh, look how nice.
847
00:34:32,780 --> 00:34:35,030
-[Bam] Mm-hmm.
-[Ami] Well built. I like it.
848
00:34:35,115 --> 00:34:36,656
Not gonna go anywhere,
that's for sure.
849
00:34:36,658 --> 00:34:38,325
Nice and sturdy.
850
00:34:38,327 --> 00:34:41,828
No, I'm really proud of Bam
and Bird accomplishing
851
00:34:41,830 --> 00:34:44,539
these hay feeders
because there are points
852
00:34:44,541 --> 00:34:47,000
in time that they haven't
quite gotten along.
853
00:34:47,077 --> 00:34:50,295
But they came together
for me, and they...
854
00:34:50,297 --> 00:34:52,172
they did a good job,
and I'm proud of them.
855
00:34:52,174 --> 00:34:53,423
[Bam] It was a win then.
856
00:34:53,425 --> 00:34:55,842
[Ami] It is a win. A win-win.
857
00:34:55,844 --> 00:34:57,969
[Bam] I just got to keep
progressing it forwards
858
00:34:58,046 --> 00:34:58,929
one thing at a time.
859
00:34:58,931 --> 00:35:00,514
[Ami] Yeah.
860
00:35:04,770 --> 00:35:06,019
[Snowbird] You want
to make a short crab?
861
00:35:06,021 --> 00:35:07,562
[Gabe] Get one.
Let's race them.
862
00:35:07,564 --> 00:35:08,897
[Snowbird] Speedy legs
is mine.
863
00:35:08,899 --> 00:35:10,148
General Speedy legs.
864
00:35:10,150 --> 00:35:12,484
-[Gabe] Crabby Pants.
-I like it.
865
00:35:12,486 --> 00:35:15,612
One thing about growing up
the way that we did,
we always made our own fun.
866
00:35:15,614 --> 00:35:16,613
-Oh.
-We had to.
867
00:35:16,615 --> 00:35:18,097
Oh.
868
00:35:18,099 --> 00:35:19,699
[Snowbird] You know,
'cause even if we would,
869
00:35:19,701 --> 00:35:21,359
for instance,
get a board game,
870
00:35:21,436 --> 00:35:25,080
we would never have
all the pieces
and or know the rules.
871
00:35:25,124 --> 00:35:26,248
Are we ready?
872
00:35:26,291 --> 00:35:27,290
Okay. Okay.
873
00:35:27,292 --> 00:35:28,500
-One...
-Two...
874
00:35:28,577 --> 00:35:30,085
-Three.
-Go.
875
00:35:30,087 --> 00:35:31,519
[Snowbird] Okay. My... Okay.
Come on.
876
00:35:31,521 --> 00:35:33,630
[Gabe] And Crabby Pants
is off to a good start.
877
00:35:33,707 --> 00:35:35,173
Come on, General Speedy Legs.
Wake up, buddy.
878
00:35:35,175 --> 00:35:36,800
Oh, I made it.
We get him some water.
879
00:35:36,877 --> 00:35:39,010
Crabby Pants is just
an amazing athlete there.
880
00:35:39,087 --> 00:35:41,638
You can't say enough.
When it comes to...
881
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:43,932
to Crabby Pants,
he's been doing it
a long time.
882
00:35:43,976 --> 00:35:46,852
I know there were some doubts
from the other sea folks.
883
00:35:46,854 --> 00:35:48,687
I think I win just
by diving in the water.
884
00:35:48,763 --> 00:35:50,647
[Snowbird] I mean,
mine hasn't moved. So, yeah.
885
00:35:50,649 --> 00:35:52,649
I knew that
he was gonna pull it around
886
00:35:52,726 --> 00:35:56,736
for the big win, even against
such an amazing competitor.
887
00:35:56,738 --> 00:35:58,905
I... I knew that Crabby Pants
would win today.
888
00:35:58,907 --> 00:36:01,491
Speedy Legs is not
the right name for this guy.
889
00:36:05,998 --> 00:36:08,123
[Noah] There's blueberries
right here,
890
00:36:08,125 --> 00:36:09,457
huckleberries there.
891
00:36:09,710 --> 00:36:12,127
[Eli speaking]
892
00:36:12,129 --> 00:36:13,920
You want mommy
to bring her kitchen here?
893
00:36:13,997 --> 00:36:15,714
[Eli speaking]
894
00:36:15,716 --> 00:36:17,090
So, you really like it here,
don't you?
895
00:36:17,092 --> 00:36:19,217
[Eli speaking]
896
00:36:19,294 --> 00:36:22,971
[narrator] The Browns aspir
to big change in their live
897
00:36:22,973 --> 00:36:25,974
to cement a legacy
for the next generation.
898
00:36:25,976 --> 00:36:27,851
[line ringing]
899
00:36:27,928 --> 00:36:30,687
I... I think I found
what we were looking for.
900
00:36:30,689 --> 00:36:33,398
[narrator] And though Noah
and wife Rhain Alicia
901
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,401
will relocate their family
to Alaska in the spring.
902
00:36:36,478 --> 00:36:39,696
[Rhain] Oh.
I know you're busy,
but I'm really excited.
903
00:36:39,698 --> 00:36:42,490
[narrator] Lost footage
reveals that when it comes
904
00:36:42,492 --> 00:36:44,993
to their kids' education
in Washington,
905
00:36:44,995 --> 00:36:47,704
they have
very different ideas.
906
00:36:48,874 --> 00:36:50,582
[Rhain] Eli got in.
907
00:36:50,584 --> 00:36:51,791
-I know.
-It's a trouble?
908
00:36:51,793 --> 00:36:53,668
-Again?
-No.
909
00:36:53,670 --> 00:36:56,254
I was able to manage
to get him into one
910
00:36:56,256 --> 00:36:59,799
of the little slots into,
like, the pre preschool.
911
00:36:59,801 --> 00:37:00,759
Hi, baby.
912
00:37:00,761 --> 00:37:02,444
And I'm really excited.
913
00:37:03,263 --> 00:37:06,097
I know he's only three,
but it's not even
really school.
914
00:37:06,099 --> 00:37:09,559
It's just like socializing
with kids his own age.
915
00:37:09,561 --> 00:37:12,479
Not just this horde of aunt...
aunts and uncles.
916
00:37:12,481 --> 00:37:14,064
It's not the horde.
917
00:37:15,150 --> 00:37:16,733
Growing up,
I was home schooled.
918
00:37:16,735 --> 00:37:18,235
We all were.
919
00:37:18,311 --> 00:37:20,695
Um, but I think for me,
that worked better.
920
00:37:20,739 --> 00:37:22,822
Do you remember
your molecular makeup
921
00:37:22,824 --> 00:37:24,366
of iron oxygen molecules?
922
00:37:24,368 --> 00:37:25,450
Yep.
923
00:37:25,452 --> 00:37:27,118
Let me see your demonstration.
924
00:37:27,195 --> 00:37:30,330
[Noah] We learned all
of the classic stuff reading
925
00:37:30,332 --> 00:37:31,873
writing, arithmetic,
the whole bit.
926
00:37:31,875 --> 00:37:35,502
But we also learned
hunting, survival.
927
00:37:35,504 --> 00:37:37,545
[Snowbird] I think
from my homeschool experienc
928
00:37:37,547 --> 00:37:42,092
I gained a lot of freedom
to be who I actually am.
929
00:37:42,094 --> 00:37:44,678
I think that being
homeschooled helps instill
930
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,321
a lot of sense of freedom.
931
00:37:46,323 --> 00:37:49,349
Freedom to dress
how we wanted
and be how we wanted.
932
00:37:50,477 --> 00:37:51,768
[Noah] Eli is a great guy.
933
00:37:51,770 --> 00:37:53,853
He has such
a cool personality.
934
00:37:53,855 --> 00:37:57,440
I don't want just conform
just to be another...
another little kid.
935
00:37:57,517 --> 00:37:59,734
Just some kid.
936
00:37:59,778 --> 00:38:03,613
What's one of the main reasons
in a social situation
937
00:38:03,615 --> 00:38:04,948
that you'd want him to do it?
938
00:38:04,950 --> 00:38:06,491
Kids his own age.
939
00:38:06,493 --> 00:38:08,535
You didn't have
any of those growing up.
940
00:38:08,537 --> 00:38:10,287
I don't get along
with people my age.
941
00:38:10,289 --> 00:38:12,122
Well, that's 'cause
you literally have never had
942
00:38:12,124 --> 00:38:14,624
a chance to hang out
with kids your own age.
943
00:38:16,795 --> 00:38:19,504
[Noah] If this is what
you want and you think
944
00:38:19,506 --> 00:38:22,048
he will enjoy it,
then that is perfect.
945
00:38:22,050 --> 00:38:24,175
Growing up, we all had a...
946
00:38:24,177 --> 00:38:28,596
what we do was parents thing,
but that doesn't really count
because you're...
947
00:38:28,598 --> 00:38:30,682
you're not talking
to your significant other,
948
00:38:30,684 --> 00:38:32,225
you're not talking
to your wife.
949
00:38:33,186 --> 00:38:36,271
So, we decided that
for the first portion,
950
00:38:36,273 --> 00:38:37,897
like preschool and that...
951
00:38:37,899 --> 00:38:40,066
oh, that Eli
would go to school.
952
00:38:40,143 --> 00:38:41,876
[Rhain] Hey, Eli.
Let's go shopping.
953
00:38:41,878 --> 00:38:43,778
[Noah]
Just 'cause someone else
is teaching my boy,
954
00:38:43,780 --> 00:38:45,572
doesn't mean
I'm not teaching him as well
955
00:38:45,574 --> 00:38:48,033
Eli's still going to get
all of the benefits
956
00:38:48,109 --> 00:38:50,827
that I can give from
a homeschooling situation.
957
00:38:50,829 --> 00:38:53,496
I just don't have to worry
about the reading,
writing and arithmetic.
958
00:38:53,573 --> 00:38:55,165
Yeah, find that puppy.
959
00:38:55,167 --> 00:38:56,624
You want to find the puppy?
960
00:38:56,626 --> 00:38:57,650
-[Eli] Yeah.
-[Rhain] Hey.
961
00:38:57,652 --> 00:38:59,878
So, we're here
for school stuff.
962
00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:03,214
You need books,
crayons, pencils.
963
00:39:03,216 --> 00:39:04,382
[Eli] And that.
964
00:39:04,459 --> 00:39:06,926
And that.
He really wants that.
965
00:39:07,003 --> 00:39:10,638
So, Eli, the first day
of school, you know,
966
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:16,144
once Mommy and Daddy
drop you off,
we get to leave you there.
967
00:39:16,188 --> 00:39:19,022
But I'm gonna be so sad.
968
00:39:19,099 --> 00:39:21,107
You're gonna be so sad?
969
00:39:21,318 --> 00:39:22,567
Are there girls?
970
00:39:22,569 --> 00:39:24,527
You're gonna be shy
about the girls?
971
00:39:24,529 --> 00:39:27,197
There's no reason
to be shy around girls.
972
00:39:27,199 --> 00:39:28,948
[Eli] I don't like them.
973
00:39:28,950 --> 00:39:29,741
You don't like them?
974
00:39:29,743 --> 00:39:31,109
No.
975
00:39:31,111 --> 00:39:33,787
I might start to get
a little sad with Eli being
976
00:39:33,789 --> 00:39:38,166
gone so often,
but at the same time,
it's just part of life.
977
00:39:38,168 --> 00:39:40,502
You know,
it's part of him growing up.
978
00:39:40,504 --> 00:39:43,463
What about a backpack
carrying all this...
979
00:39:43,540 --> 00:39:45,006
-You got this one.
-Beautiful.
980
00:39:45,008 --> 00:39:46,633
-We do.
-We do?
981
00:39:46,709 --> 00:39:48,676
-Yeah. On here.
-That one, huh?
982
00:39:48,678 --> 00:39:50,220
-[Noah] You like that one?
-Yeah.
983
00:39:50,222 --> 00:39:54,099
And I'm so happy to see him
growing up happy and healthy.
984
00:39:54,101 --> 00:39:55,517
And that's all the mom wants
985
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,185
I just want
to see him healthy,
986
00:39:57,187 --> 00:40:00,313
happy and having fun
and being a kid.
987
00:40:00,315 --> 00:40:01,773
-Thank you.
-[Eli] This ones...
988
00:40:01,775 --> 00:40:03,441
Hey. This was fun.
989
00:40:06,446 --> 00:40:08,488
[Ami] The year Billy gone
it does make me feel good
990
00:40:08,565 --> 00:40:10,490
to know that the kids
and the grandkids
991
00:40:10,492 --> 00:40:13,493
will continue the legacy
of our lifestyle.
992
00:40:14,579 --> 00:40:16,538
Perseverance
and a lot of hard work.
993
00:40:16,540 --> 00:40:18,665
And it's what we do.
994
00:40:18,667 --> 00:40:20,417
[Gabe] From now every,
every step I take
995
00:40:20,493 --> 00:40:23,211
is a step closer to getting
Raquell and my girls up here.
996
00:40:23,505 --> 00:40:24,587
Right.
997
00:40:24,589 --> 00:40:26,631
And so, I am...
I am in a hurry.
998
00:40:26,633 --> 00:40:27,966
Like, I am racing time,
you know.
999
00:40:27,968 --> 00:40:29,092
I get that.
1000
00:40:29,094 --> 00:40:30,760
[Gabe] You know,
'cause every day
1001
00:40:30,762 --> 00:40:32,345
is another day
that they grow up and...
1002
00:40:32,347 --> 00:40:34,848
and don't get
to be here, you know.
1003
00:40:34,850 --> 00:40:37,475
And so, I do have a bad habit
of like kind of rushing
1004
00:40:37,477 --> 00:40:39,561
ahead of myself sometimes.
1005
00:40:39,563 --> 00:40:40,603
Your heart's always
in the right place.
1006
00:40:40,605 --> 00:40:42,013
[Gabe chuckles]
1007
00:40:42,015 --> 00:40:44,941
Dad, you know, he taught us
many things, you know.
1008
00:40:44,943 --> 00:40:46,276
One of the things
that he taught us
1009
00:40:46,352 --> 00:40:47,944
was you always
dream big and try
1010
00:40:47,946 --> 00:40:50,738
and achieve even more
than you did last year.
1011
00:40:50,740 --> 00:40:52,657
You know, that's why I have
high hopes for next year.
1012
00:40:52,659 --> 00:40:55,577
I want to get even more done.
Do even more, you know.
1013
00:40:55,620 --> 00:40:57,162
All right, send it down.
1014
00:40:58,206 --> 00:40:59,414
Whoo!
1015
00:40:59,458 --> 00:41:00,623
[Gabe] Awesome, bro.
1016
00:41:00,700 --> 00:41:01,774
[Bam] Oh, you should
never be realistic
1017
00:41:01,776 --> 00:41:03,442
with your goals
and your dreams.
1018
00:41:03,444 --> 00:41:06,463
Be realistic
with your time and abilities
but... but goals and...
1019
00:41:06,465 --> 00:41:09,549
and dreams,
those should always be
a little bit outlandish.
1020
00:41:09,626 --> 00:41:12,051
You have to come visit
on my island.
1021
00:41:12,053 --> 00:41:13,845
That's cool.
