With only four travellers remaining, the heavy rains of Syilx territory threaten the journey that awaits. All hope seems lost until a beautiful gift of handmade canoes sets the group on a new course. Crashing waters bring new life to their adventure.
Merchants of the Wild, Season 3, follows six Indigenous adventurers as they journey along ancient paths that were traditionally used by Indigenous traders deep in the mountains of Syilx territory in BC. They spend 25 days in the wilderness learning to reconnect with their culture, with only a handful of necessary tools and a limited food supply. During the expedition they must rely solely on the land, each other, and traditional teachings to survive.
