    Week One: Videos from the Wild

    Watch Ed Wardle's video dispatches from the Yukon wilderness

    Ed is equipped with multiple cameras and will be documenting his survival adventure for the next three months. Each week he will put video tapes in a drop box at a designated location and then return to his camp. After Ed has done this and left the vicinity, film crew members will go and pick up the videos without ever being in contact with Ed. He may be alone in the wild, but you get to follow along from behind the cameras' lens.
