1
00:00:01.701 --> 00:00:03.536
- You know what else
is on my agenda?

2
00:00:04.671 --> 00:00:06.840
Which is on my agenda
every single day,

3
00:00:08.041 --> 00:00:09.843
is cutting firewood.

4
00:00:09.843 --> 00:00:11.611
I need enough firewood
to last tonight

5
00:00:11.611 --> 00:00:13.546
and in the morning
before I leave.

6
00:00:15.448 --> 00:00:17.150
(ax thuds)
(hacksaw hisses)

7
00:00:17.150 --> 00:00:19.853
That's over half of what
I do, is cut firewood.

8
00:00:22.489 --> 00:00:24.290
But granted, I've
been smoking meat

9
00:00:24.290 --> 00:00:27.060
and had to have a fire going
pretty much all the time.

10
00:00:27.060 --> 00:00:29.095
So, needed a lot of firewood.

11
00:00:31.064 --> 00:00:32.699
It's kind of warm this morning,

12
00:00:32.699 --> 00:00:34.467
makes me think we
got rain coming in.

13
00:00:34.467 --> 00:00:36.903
You can see the clouds
starting to form.

14
00:00:41.775 --> 00:00:43.777
I'm ready for a sunny day.

15
00:00:43.777 --> 00:00:45.445
I haven't had a
sunny for a while.

16
00:00:47.147 --> 00:00:49.282
You know, the last couple
days I've been thinking back

17
00:00:49.282 --> 00:00:52.519
and reflecting on
this trip because it's

18
00:00:52.519 --> 00:00:53.720
coming to a close.

19
00:00:55.221 --> 00:00:57.657
And how thankful I am
for the opportunity

20
00:00:59.526 --> 00:01:01.294
and for the lifestyle
that I live.

21
00:01:02.929 --> 00:01:04.431
And it's not an easy lifestyle.

22
00:01:04.431 --> 00:01:06.833
It's not a lifestyle
that's gonna make you rich.

23
00:01:09.602 --> 00:01:11.738
Unless your riches
are experiences

24
00:01:14.240 --> 00:01:18.078
and solitude.
(Laramy chuckles)

25
00:01:18.078 --> 00:01:19.446
And after being in here,

26
00:01:19.446 --> 00:01:20.914
and living off the land,

27
00:01:20.914 --> 00:01:22.048
and getting closer to

28
00:01:23.249 --> 00:01:25.151
mother nature and
the man upstairs,

29
00:01:28.955 --> 00:01:30.056
my glass is full.

30
00:01:31.191 --> 00:01:34.427
(upbeat country music)

31
00:01:40.700 --> 00:01:42.535
- [Presenter] Laramy
Sasquatch Miller

32
00:01:42.535 --> 00:01:45.638
is a throwback champ
from another era.

33
00:01:45.638 --> 00:01:47.941
A creature of the past.

34
00:01:47.941 --> 00:01:51.611
This hunter, father,
figure of the west,

35
00:01:51.611 --> 00:01:54.881
is a man of the mountains,
with a calling to fulfill.

36
00:01:56.316 --> 00:01:59.919
Join him on "The Trail",
presented by Case Knives.

37
00:02:03.256 --> 00:02:06.025
- There's two whitetail
does right here.

38
00:02:06.025 --> 00:02:08.228
See if I can get 'em on camera.

39
00:02:08.228 --> 00:02:10.029
They come walking right by camp.

40
00:02:13.733 --> 00:02:15.568
I grabbed my bow
and went over there,

41
00:02:16.603 --> 00:02:18.204
but then I

42
00:02:18.204 --> 00:02:19.873
thought better of it because

43
00:02:19.873 --> 00:02:23.476
I already have enough
meat to pack outta here.

44
00:02:23.476 --> 00:02:25.411
I don't need another
doe right now.

45
00:02:25.411 --> 00:02:28.414
(deep guitar music)

46
00:02:29.849 --> 00:02:32.418
They were just standing
right there by the creek.

47
00:02:32.418 --> 00:02:35.755
Right there.
(deep guitar music)

48
00:02:37.957 --> 00:02:39.058
I'll let this focus.

49
00:02:40.460 --> 00:02:42.228
They were just
standing right there

50
00:02:43.363 --> 00:02:45.131
by the creek.

51
00:02:45.131 --> 00:02:47.233
I came around the
corner with my bow

52
00:02:48.801 --> 00:02:50.270
and I coulda shot the one,

53
00:02:50.270 --> 00:02:52.539
she's standing there
about 20 yards, 15 yards.

54
00:02:55.875 --> 00:02:56.709
But guess what?

55
00:02:57.777 --> 00:02:58.611
I've been blessed,

56
00:02:58.611 --> 00:02:59.712
I have plenty of meat.

57
00:03:03.750 --> 00:03:04.751
It's the last thing,

58
00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:07.654
I don't need another
hide to deal with.

59
00:03:07.654 --> 00:03:10.323
I don't need more meat
to deal with right now.

60
00:03:10.323 --> 00:03:12.091
I'm gonna take care
of what I have.

61
00:03:14.227 --> 00:03:15.828
Now, if I was staying
here for the winter,

62
00:03:15.828 --> 00:03:17.397
you're dang straight
I'd have shot her

63
00:03:17.397 --> 00:03:19.265
and had another
doe to deal with.

64
00:03:20.466 --> 00:03:21.968
Look at Seven, he
ain't quite sure.

65
00:03:23.870 --> 00:03:25.672
She blew at him.

66
00:03:25.672 --> 00:03:27.207
He's not quite sure about it.

67
00:03:32.212 --> 00:03:34.847
I don't know he's ever heard
a whitetail blow at him.

68
00:03:36.349 --> 00:03:37.250
Good watchdog.

69
00:03:38.585 --> 00:03:40.587
Seven's grown up a
lot on this trip.

70
00:03:41.955 --> 00:03:43.556
He saw a moose for
the first time,

71
00:03:43.556 --> 00:03:45.158
heard wolves howl
for the first time,

72
00:03:45.158 --> 00:03:46.960
smelled bears for
the first time,

73
00:03:47.927 --> 00:03:49.829
smelled meat for the first time.

74
00:03:51.297 --> 00:03:53.099
Look at him,

75
00:03:53.099 --> 00:03:53.967
he's on red alert

76
00:03:55.969 --> 00:03:57.737
over whitetail does.

77
00:03:57.737 --> 00:04:00.740
(deep guitar music)

78
00:04:09.549 --> 00:04:11.651
Solitary experiences,

79
00:04:11.651 --> 00:04:14.954
for all their natural
rewards, involve risk.

80
00:04:16.489 --> 00:04:18.958
For loved ones,
both near and far,

81
00:04:18.958 --> 00:04:21.127
an inner trust is necessary

82
00:04:21.127 --> 00:04:24.430
to steer yourself safely
along the roads less traveled,

83
00:04:25.565 --> 00:04:27.567
avoiding the hazards
of life's trail.

84
00:04:29.002 --> 00:04:30.870
- It's definitely
a weird feeling

85
00:04:30.870 --> 00:04:33.940
just going into town,
grabbing coffee,

86
00:04:33.940 --> 00:04:37.243
running to the store,
going shopping,

87
00:04:37.243 --> 00:04:40.446
and not knowing what,
you know, Laramy's doing.

88
00:04:40.446 --> 00:04:43.549
He's just out there in
the mountain somewhere.

89
00:04:43.549 --> 00:04:45.218
He can't just

90
00:04:45.218 --> 00:04:47.020
get anything he needs, at all.

91
00:04:48.154 --> 00:04:49.989
Living off the land.

92
00:04:49.989 --> 00:04:52.425
I've tried to stay positive
this whole time but

93
00:04:53.559 --> 00:04:55.295
you can't help but
get anxious about it.

94
00:04:57.630 --> 00:04:59.399
Which I'm sure he would,

95
00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:00.967
well, he'd be probably
a lot more anxious

96
00:05:00.967 --> 00:05:02.235
as if it was me out there

97
00:05:02.235 --> 00:05:03.870
'cause I don't have
the survival skills.

98
00:05:03.870 --> 00:05:06.372
But like vice versa,

99
00:05:06.372 --> 00:05:09.876
whenever your
significant other's in a

100
00:05:09.876 --> 00:05:11.844
uncomfortable or
stressful situation,

101
00:05:11.844 --> 00:05:14.714
you're gonna be
stressed out for them.

102
00:05:18.251 --> 00:05:19.852
- All right, so I'm gonna do now

103
00:05:20.887 --> 00:05:22.422
is I'm gonna cut a bunch of fat.

104
00:05:22.422 --> 00:05:24.524
I've already got a
bunch of fat cut off of

105
00:05:25.725 --> 00:05:27.427
those quarters, and
fat that I've saved.

106
00:05:29.162 --> 00:05:32.598
But I'm gonna cut some and
take a bunch of it over there

107
00:05:32.598 --> 00:05:36.636
and render it down, so that
I can pour it on my pemmican.

108
00:05:38.438 --> 00:05:39.472
Make a little oil.

109
00:05:42.108 --> 00:05:44.410
(Laramy groans)
So,

110
00:05:47.046 --> 00:05:49.582
all this right here is fat.

111
00:05:51.451 --> 00:05:52.285
That,

112
00:05:54.620 --> 00:05:58.624
that, I'll cut the little
bit of meat off of it.

113
00:06:00.426 --> 00:06:02.061
I got all this fat right here.

114
00:06:03.529 --> 00:06:07.200
(mellow instrumental music)

115
00:06:08.868 --> 00:06:10.036
Take all this,

116
00:06:11.037 --> 00:06:12.338
and I'll cut the little bitty,

117
00:06:12.338 --> 00:06:13.539
little pieces of meat

118
00:06:14.474 --> 00:06:15.308
that are on there.

119
00:06:15.308 --> 00:06:17.009
I'll cut those off and,

120
00:06:17.009 --> 00:06:19.379
heck, I'll go ahead and
cook them up right now.

121
00:06:22.081 --> 00:06:23.416
Little jerky slivers.

122
00:06:24.283 --> 00:06:27.854
(mellow instrumental music)

123
00:06:28.888 --> 00:06:31.324
So all these pieces like this,

124
00:06:31.324 --> 00:06:34.026
those pieces are ready.

125
00:06:35.561 --> 00:06:37.363
We'll set these on
this lid for now.

126
00:06:39.432 --> 00:06:40.333
That's all fat,

127
00:06:43.302 --> 00:06:46.606
and I'll just make little
jerky pieces outta all these.

128
00:06:49.876 --> 00:06:53.279
Even if it's got a little fat
on it, it'll be all right.

129
00:06:53.279 --> 00:06:54.347
Just real thin.

130
00:06:55.481 --> 00:06:56.315
I'm not

131
00:06:57.316 --> 00:06:58.451
cooking 'em slow.

132
00:07:00.153 --> 00:07:01.454
Now, and all this fat

133
00:07:04.223 --> 00:07:05.958
most people just throw away.

134
00:07:07.660 --> 00:07:09.862
And it's an amazing
resource, honestly.

135
00:07:13.399 --> 00:07:15.168
I don't wanna set it
directly on the fire.

136
00:07:15.168 --> 00:07:16.669
I want it to slowly

137
00:07:17.837 --> 00:07:19.505
cook.

138
00:07:19.505 --> 00:07:21.240
So, I'll set it right over here.

139
00:07:25.845 --> 00:07:27.480
And then throughout
the afternoon,

140
00:07:29.482 --> 00:07:30.750
I'll just check it,

141
00:07:30.750 --> 00:07:32.218
that it's just gonna
keep rendering down.

142
00:07:32.218 --> 00:07:35.188
So, all it is, is it's
melting all that fat into oil.

143
00:07:36.289 --> 00:07:38.291
You know, and then I can,

144
00:07:38.291 --> 00:07:40.693
if I had some cheese
cloth or something,

145
00:07:41.794 --> 00:07:42.929
I would sift it.

146
00:07:42.929 --> 00:07:44.163
I don't have
anything to sift it.

147
00:07:44.163 --> 00:07:47.467
So, I'll just have
to bear with it and

148
00:07:47.467 --> 00:07:50.169
try to get the other
pieces out once it cools.

149
00:07:50.169 --> 00:07:52.438
But when it cools, it's
gonna be like a lard.

150
00:07:54.140 --> 00:07:57.276
And this is just part
of the fat off that.

151
00:07:57.276 --> 00:07:58.811
You can see there's
little pieces of meat,

152
00:07:58.811 --> 00:08:00.546
but most of it's
just straight fat.

153
00:08:02.748 --> 00:08:04.083
And just leave it in there.

154
00:08:05.651 --> 00:08:08.354
I'll leave it in there
and let it render down.

155
00:08:08.354 --> 00:08:10.656
It'll probably take an
hour or so, maybe more.

156
00:08:11.991 --> 00:08:13.159
Render it down and

157
00:08:14.460 --> 00:08:17.763
then I'll be able
to pour it over my

158
00:08:17.763 --> 00:08:19.632
smashed up meat and my berries.

159
00:08:21.667 --> 00:08:23.069
And then I'll have pemmican.

160
00:08:23.936 --> 00:08:24.770
Mountain man trail mix.

161
00:08:26.038 --> 00:08:29.041
(soft guitar music)

162
00:08:34.647 --> 00:08:36.482
I have my little
metate right here.

163
00:08:37.984 --> 00:08:38.818
Get my...

164
00:08:41.487 --> 00:08:45.124
And I'll just take my
pieces of dried meat.

165
00:08:45.124 --> 00:08:46.792
You see my pieces of dried meat.

166
00:08:48.160 --> 00:08:51.063
(muffled thudding)

167
00:08:59.805 --> 00:09:01.207
You know, and then I'll take

168
00:09:03.209 --> 00:09:04.343
all this stuff.

169
00:09:05.511 --> 00:09:07.613
You see how it just
shreds really easy

170
00:09:07.613 --> 00:09:09.248
once you grind it up like that.

171
00:09:10.650 --> 00:09:12.151
I'll just take a bunch of this

172
00:09:13.119 --> 00:09:14.120
and start putting it

173
00:09:16.556 --> 00:09:17.390
in my bag.

174
00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:21.160
Okay, look in there.

175
00:09:23.095 --> 00:09:23.930
Got a lot to do.

176
00:09:26.132 --> 00:09:27.366
You know, this is the way

177
00:09:28.834 --> 00:09:30.770
a lot of your native
American tribes,

178
00:09:32.471 --> 00:09:34.840
you know, later on,
when they started

179
00:09:36.242 --> 00:09:38.411
farming a little bit and
they had corn and they had,

180
00:09:40.346 --> 00:09:43.249
you know, they'd pick
all the seeds off

181
00:09:43.249 --> 00:09:46.352
the top of the grasses
and stuff like that.

182
00:09:46.352 --> 00:09:49.488
Well, then they would take
it to a stone like this

183
00:09:49.488 --> 00:09:52.158
and they would grind it all
up as fine as they could.

184
00:09:53.559 --> 00:09:57.296
And, that's how they
would make their flour

185
00:09:57.296 --> 00:09:58.831
and then they could make bread

186
00:09:58.831 --> 00:10:00.166
and stuff like that.

187
00:10:01.601 --> 00:10:03.135
You know, I'm sure I
could take my knife

188
00:10:03.135 --> 00:10:04.136
and cut all this up.

189
00:10:04.136 --> 00:10:06.539
But it's not gonna mash it

190
00:10:06.539 --> 00:10:07.773
and make it fray

191
00:10:09.809 --> 00:10:11.243
like this.

192
00:10:11.243 --> 00:10:12.912
You know, you want
it kind of mashed

193
00:10:12.912 --> 00:10:13.946
so when you pour that

194
00:10:15.047 --> 00:10:16.315
fat on it,

195
00:10:16.315 --> 00:10:19.018
that fat soaks into the
meat, every little bit.

196
00:10:20.653 --> 00:10:23.489
- [Presenter] The original
trail food, pemmican,

197
00:10:23.489 --> 00:10:26.325
consists of lean
venison or buffalo meat

198
00:10:26.325 --> 00:10:28.194
mixed with fat.

199
00:10:28.194 --> 00:10:29.829
(rock clanking)

200
00:10:29.829 --> 00:10:31.664
Native American recipes

201
00:10:31.664 --> 00:10:33.699
incorporate dried
berries and nuts

202
00:10:33.699 --> 00:10:35.701
for added flavor and nutrition.

203
00:10:37.069 --> 00:10:39.639
Pemmican was a vital
meal for ancient hunters,

204
00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:41.374
trappers, and explorers.

205
00:10:42.875 --> 00:10:44.110
- So I pulled it off,

206
00:10:45.578 --> 00:10:47.279
I'm gonna let it cool real good.

207
00:10:48.714 --> 00:10:50.116
(fat sizzling)

208
00:10:50.116 --> 00:10:52.385
And as soon as it's cool
enough for me to reach in there

209
00:10:52.385 --> 00:10:53.219
and grab them

210
00:10:53.219 --> 00:10:54.420
pieces of fat out,

211
00:10:55.755 --> 00:10:56.989
then I can take that

212
00:10:58.257 --> 00:11:00.126
pour it into my pouch

213
00:11:00.126 --> 00:11:02.895
on top of all the
meat and berries.

214
00:11:05.765 --> 00:11:07.400
And guess what?

215
00:11:07.400 --> 00:11:08.901
I'll have pemmican
(clicks tongue).

216
00:11:11.437 --> 00:11:14.240
I'll have a meal handy
whenever I need it.

217
00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:15.441
You can see right there.

218
00:11:17.476 --> 00:11:18.811
And I'm gonna drizzle

219
00:11:21.380 --> 00:11:22.214
this fat

220
00:11:23.916 --> 00:11:25.184
that's in here,

221
00:11:25.184 --> 00:11:26.786
I'm gonna drizzle
it all over that.

222
00:11:33.793 --> 00:11:35.227
That's probably enough.

223
00:11:36.128 --> 00:11:37.530
There we go, that's perfect.

224
00:11:38.764 --> 00:11:39.965
Now you look,

225
00:11:41.100 --> 00:11:43.703
and it's a completely
different look.

226
00:11:44.637 --> 00:11:46.038
Now you got all that fat,

227
00:11:47.339 --> 00:11:48.240
thickens up,

228
00:11:50.309 --> 00:11:51.610
and there's your pemmican.

229
00:11:52.778 --> 00:11:53.646
Look it in there.

230
00:11:55.281 --> 00:11:56.348
Mm-mm-mm.

231
00:12:00.119 --> 00:12:02.888
- [Presenter] Sometimes
we let life get in the way

232
00:12:02.888 --> 00:12:05.124
of what makes us, us.

233
00:12:07.259 --> 00:12:09.528
Everybody has their niche.

234
00:12:09.528 --> 00:12:11.697
Everybody has what
makes them go,

235
00:12:11.697 --> 00:12:13.866
what touches their soul.

236
00:12:13.866 --> 00:12:15.768
And the mountains
are that for Laramy.

237
00:12:17.036 --> 00:12:19.004
- As I sit here
on my last night,

238
00:12:19.872 --> 00:12:22.141
daylight slowly fadin' away,

239
00:12:23.609 --> 00:12:26.045
reflecting on this
whole trip, man.

240
00:12:31.917 --> 00:12:34.620
You know, on one hand it
feels like it's been forever,

241
00:12:36.255 --> 00:12:37.957
but on another hand, it flew by.

242
00:12:39.158 --> 00:12:40.659
And I feel like I haven't seen

243
00:12:41.961 --> 00:12:44.396
my family for a long time.

244
00:12:46.365 --> 00:12:47.666
Been fun, been real.

245
00:12:48.968 --> 00:12:50.870
I wanted to come
out and test myself.

246
00:12:54.707 --> 00:12:57.276
I think I did pretty good,
I struggled at times.

247
00:13:01.180 --> 00:13:02.481
But at the end of the day,

248
00:13:06.218 --> 00:13:07.753
I made it through

249
00:13:07.753 --> 00:13:11.290
and I'm going out heavier
than I came in, pack wise.

250
00:13:14.727 --> 00:13:17.363
Got a nice hide for Faye.

251
00:13:19.231 --> 00:13:20.933
Be a nice little

252
00:13:20.933 --> 00:13:22.835
rug for her to crawl around on.

253
00:13:23.869 --> 00:13:24.837
I got some meat

254
00:13:28.140 --> 00:13:29.275
and lots of memories.

255
00:13:31.944 --> 00:13:34.213
I didn't turn into bear poop,

256
00:13:34.213 --> 00:13:35.381
that's always a plus.

257
00:13:36.448 --> 00:13:37.983
Seven came a long way.

258
00:13:39.718 --> 00:13:42.688
It's raining off and on,
of course, mother nature

259
00:13:42.688 --> 00:13:43.856
sending me off,

260
00:13:44.957 --> 00:13:46.959
making my last night beautiful.

261
00:13:49.995 --> 00:13:51.297
Been wet most of the trip might,

262
00:13:51.297 --> 00:13:53.032
as well stay wet, I guess.

263
00:13:53.032 --> 00:13:55.267
(Laramy chuckles)

264
00:13:55.267 --> 00:13:57.369
(bright music)

265
00:14:00.239 --> 00:14:03.375
- So for breakfast I
just cut me four pieces

266
00:14:03.375 --> 00:14:04.410
off of a quarter.

267
00:14:07.079 --> 00:14:09.849
Now, I'm gonna build the
fire up underneath my rock.

268
00:14:09.849 --> 00:14:10.883
(clicks tongue)

269
00:14:10.883 --> 00:14:12.785
Just little thin steaks.

270
00:14:13.786 --> 00:14:16.222
That's all I need for breakfast.

271
00:14:16.222 --> 00:14:17.957
I'll have my pemmican for lunch.

272
00:14:19.058 --> 00:14:20.459
Then I'll have a big dinner.

273
00:14:22.461 --> 00:14:27.466
(Laramy groans)
(deep somber music)

274
00:14:31.971 --> 00:14:34.073
Well, seeing how it's
not raining anymore.

275
00:14:37.776 --> 00:14:39.945
This hide's got a little
bit of drying to do.

276
00:14:39.945 --> 00:14:41.780
I need to keep stretching
it a little bit

277
00:14:41.780 --> 00:14:44.183
but it is pretty much done.

278
00:14:44.183 --> 00:14:47.119
(deep somber music)

279
00:14:49.455 --> 00:14:50.422
Just in time.

280
00:14:52.558 --> 00:14:55.995
You can see it's
still somewhat wet.

281
00:14:55.995 --> 00:14:58.831
I'm gonna hang it up over here
while I'm packing up camp.

282
00:15:01.533 --> 00:15:03.636
And then I'll use this
to roll some stuff in

283
00:15:03.636 --> 00:15:04.870
once it dries out.

284
00:15:04.870 --> 00:15:08.173
But, my hide is
pretty much done.

285
00:15:09.541 --> 00:15:12.544
(deep somber music)

286
00:15:29.395 --> 00:15:31.363
- We made it, we
made it 30 days.

287
00:15:31.363 --> 00:15:32.298
(Faye babbling)

288
00:15:32.298 --> 00:15:34.700
Yeah, we did, without daddy.

289
00:15:34.700 --> 00:15:36.402
And now we're here
to pick him up.

290
00:15:37.569 --> 00:15:38.737
It does not,

291
00:15:38.737 --> 00:15:40.239
it does not feel real.

292
00:15:41.173 --> 00:15:42.708
Like it does not feel real

293
00:15:43.876 --> 00:15:45.577
that we're actually
gonna get to see him,

294
00:15:45.577 --> 00:15:46.979
and hug him, huh.

295
00:15:48.948 --> 00:15:50.115
I brought him water,

296
00:15:50.115 --> 00:15:52.017
and a change of clothes,

297
00:15:52.017 --> 00:15:54.053
and some muffins.

298
00:15:54.053 --> 00:15:56.488
And I know we're going out
for a big steak dinner.

299
00:15:56.488 --> 00:15:59.658
So, we are so excited.

300
00:15:59.658 --> 00:16:01.427
Huh, are you excited?

301
00:16:01.427 --> 00:16:03.362
Are you excited?

302
00:16:03.362 --> 00:16:06.432
(light somber music)

303
00:16:29.088 --> 00:16:31.156
Apparently, his shelter,

304
00:16:31.156 --> 00:16:32.958
where he was is still like

305
00:16:32.958 --> 00:16:34.793
five or six miles from here.

306
00:16:34.793 --> 00:16:36.962
And we had to take the
fricking off-road Jeep

307
00:16:36.962 --> 00:16:38.063
to even get here.

308
00:16:38.063 --> 00:16:39.765
And it was like an off-road

309
00:16:39.765 --> 00:16:41.567
trek for an hour.

310
00:16:41.567 --> 00:16:44.603
So, he's way out there.

311
00:16:44.603 --> 00:16:46.672
Huh, daddy's way out there.

312
00:16:48.273 --> 00:16:50.075
(Donna shivers)

313
00:16:50.075 --> 00:16:52.644
I don't know how he made
it out here for 30 days.

314
00:16:52.644 --> 00:16:55.214
It's been like 20
minutes and I'm freezing.

315
00:16:55.214 --> 00:16:57.783
Huh, are you cold?

316
00:16:57.783 --> 00:17:00.886

318
00:17:15.401 --> 00:17:17.669
what is you doing?

319
00:17:17.669 --> 00:17:19.605
Huh, what is you doing?

320
00:17:22.741 --> 00:17:27.746
How are you?
(Laramy snorts)

321
00:17:28.981 --> 00:17:30.182
(lips smack)
- [Donna] Oh, thank gosh.

322
00:17:30.182 --> 00:17:31.417
(Donna laughs)

323
00:17:31.417 --> 00:17:32.785
- [Laramy] What are you
getting scared about?

324
00:17:32.785 --> 00:17:34.053
What you doing?

325
00:17:35.721 --> 00:17:37.289
Huh, did you forget me?

326
00:17:38.290 --> 00:17:39.525
Did you forget me?

327
00:17:39.525 --> 00:17:41.193
- [Donna] Say, "No,
I didn't forget you."

(lips smacking)

329
00:17:42.694 --> 00:17:44.763
- Did you forget me?

330
00:17:44.763 --> 00:17:45.597
(Donna laughs)

331
00:17:45.597 --> 00:17:48.567
Huh?
(lips smacking)

332

(Laramy laughs)

333
00:17:52.037 --> 00:17:55.140
Come here.
- Say, "You look skinnier."

334
00:17:56.308 --> 00:17:57.810
- She says, "Whoa
Dad, you stink."

335
00:17:57.810 --> 00:17:59.044
(Donna laughs)
Does daddy stink?

336
00:17:59.044 --> 00:18:00.579
- [Donna] She said,
"You smell different,

337
00:18:00.579 --> 00:18:03.182
and you look skinnier."
- Does daddy stink?

338
00:18:03.182 --> 00:18:05.350
Does daddy stink?

339
00:18:05.350 --> 00:18:06.919
- [Donna] Look at you, you're
spitting up everywhere.

340
00:18:06.919 --> 00:18:07.920
You got excited.

341
00:18:09.221 --> 00:18:10.055
- Here.

342
00:18:13.892 --> 00:18:17.696
(lips smack)
(Laramy groans)

343
00:18:17.696 --> 00:18:19.698
Let me get him unloaded.

344
00:18:20.732 --> 00:18:21.867
Get him in the trailer.

345
00:18:22.901 --> 00:18:24.837
And I'm ready to go take a bath,

346
00:18:24.837 --> 00:18:27.606
or a shower, and poop
on a real toilet.

347

In the beginning,

354
00:18:50.762 --> 00:18:52.464
the journey was fruitful.

355
00:18:52.464 --> 00:18:54.266
Food and shelter came easy.

00:19:03.609 --> 00:19:05.210
forced him and his
young horse, Seven,

360
00:19:05.210 --> 00:19:06.445
to find a new camp.

361
00:19:07.613 --> 00:19:10.782
- Four or five inches
of snow, maybe more.

362
00:19:10.782 --> 00:19:12.851
I don't wanna get
snowed in up here.

363
00:19:12.851 --> 00:19:14.953
(Laramy chuckles)
Oh boy.

364
00:19:14.953 --> 00:19:16.855
- [Presenter] The
elements set in,

365
00:19:16.855 --> 00:19:18.323
and challenges arose.

366
00:19:19.725 --> 00:19:22.194
- [Laramy] Could be worse,
could have broke his leg, but.

367
00:19:23.896 --> 00:19:26.865
I mean, it feels like
it's in the single digits

368
00:19:26.865 --> 00:19:29.234
but I don't know what it is.

369
00:19:29.234 --> 00:19:30.202
- [Presenter] But the modern day

370
00:19:30.202 --> 00:19:33.305
Jeremiah Johnson held strong,

371
00:19:33.305 --> 00:19:34.873
hungry, but motivated.

372
00:19:36.675 --> 00:19:37.943
- How can you hike
through the woods

373
00:19:37.943 --> 00:19:40.479
as much as I have and
not even see a squirrel?

374
00:19:42.347 --> 00:19:44.516
- [Presenter]
Tired, but hopeful.

375
00:19:44.516 --> 00:19:46.318
His skills kept him alive.

376
00:19:47.786 --> 00:19:49.454
(bow thuds)

377
00:19:49.454 --> 00:19:51.423
- I got it.

378
00:19:53.058 --> 00:19:54.293
Holy smokes.

379
00:19:54.293 --> 00:19:56.628
I am starving, and
this right here,

380
00:19:56.628 --> 00:19:57.930
oh, it's gonna be amazing.

381
00:19:59.097 --> 00:20:00.933
- [Presenter] After
battling white death,

382
00:20:00.933 --> 00:20:04.703
he found his eventual safe
haven and got to work.

383
00:20:06.405 --> 00:20:09.741
(soft triumphant music)

384
00:20:11.476 --> 00:20:12.711
(bow thuds)

385
00:20:12.711 --> 00:20:13.545
- Oh.

386
00:20:17.649 --> 00:20:18.750
Look at that.

387
00:20:19.851 --> 00:20:20.686
Mm-hmm.

388
00:20:23.355 --> 00:20:24.489
- [Presenter] In the end,

389
00:20:24.489 --> 00:20:26.024
he proved to himself

390
00:20:26.024 --> 00:20:27.793
that he can endure the hardships

391
00:20:27.793 --> 00:20:29.461
that his ancestors faced.

392
00:20:30.662 --> 00:20:33.532
The rugged Sasquatch
returned a better man.

393
00:20:35.367 --> 00:20:37.836
But with the same
spirit he left with.

394
00:20:38.870 --> 00:20:41.840
(soft bright music)
