Deadly currents and harsh weather wreak havoc on the group's latest paddle. An imperative Elder teaching focuses on animal hide. As the season changes and storms threaten the valley, the group must work harder than ever to survive.

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.
