Survivorman - Sierra Nevada

Survivorman , Les Stroud
Trailer for Sierra Nevada.
The California Gold Rush drew people from all over the world to the rugged Sierra Nevada's. Now it's a hiker's dream - drawing people from all over the world. You can easily hike for miles and miles here. The problem is... it's just as easy to get lost.
Les finds himself in the predicament of a lost hiker. Travelling with a typical "day hiker" pack - only provisions for an overnight stay - Les needs to make the most of what he's brought with him, and scrounge the rest.
Fortunate to have a tent, he still needs to find nourishment without stumbling into poison oak which abounds in this area. Miner's lettuce, wild onions, Manzanita flowers, pine buds and acorns are but a few of the local flora he can eat.
As night falls, it's time for fire and he makes short use of the flashlight that he brought, turning this battery-powered utility into a real "torch."
As the seventh day of his ordeal dawns, the local Search and Rescue unit takes to air and land to try and find Les. Truly lost, if they don't find him, Les could be in real trouble.
