Coast Guard Alaska

Survival of the Fittest (2x3)

Air date: May 02, 2012

Episode 203 of Coast Guard Alaska focuses on unique survival stories on the seas and in the wilderness of Alaska. The Guardsmen race to the scene when a damaged vessel goes drifting across the tumultuous Bering Sea, an injured man needs to be hoisted off a freighter, and three hunters go stranded in the woods near Sitka. Back in Kodiak, rescue swimmers are embedded in the forest for a "survival school" that teaches them the most important lesson of all--how to stay alive in the treacherous Alaskan landscape.
