As Montana's calving season approaches its end, disease, hay shortage, and financial hardship force the cowboys to make difficult choices that impact not only their season but also the future of their ranches and the heritage they strive to preserve.

The most epic tradition of the American West comes alive when the cowboys drive their cattle to the open range. Horses, dogs, trucks, lassos and helicopters all come into play as the cowboys ride, rope and rustle their way to nature's bounty.

Three families mark their herds with one of their oldest traditions. The ranchers enjoy friendship and fellowship as the community comes to lend a hand branding and vaccinate the cattle. Harsh weather threatens to derail branding day.

Fire in the Montana wilderness threatens one of the ranches. The cowboys scramble to store enough hay for the winter before fall rains wash them out completely. It's all hands on deck to get the job done when tragedy strikes one of the families.

One cowboy must step up or the ranch could collapse from lack of leadership. The search goes on for someone worthy to continue the legacy of the American cowboy while a father tries to avoid repeating the mistakes of the previous generation.

An entire season boils down to one day. After months struggling through blizzards, fires and accidents, three families prepare to sell their calves and collect their one paycheck of the year. The future of the American cowboy hangs in the balance.

Welcome to Greenland, the most imposing island on Earth. Every summer, its massive ice sheet melts, revealing immense potential for mineral wealth in the rock below. Now, a group of eight American prospectors have banded together to strike it rich.

With only 6 weeks left, the 60 Degree Resources miners already have their first target on Storø. Finding accessible targets within close distance to the camp is crucial for the success of the expedition. Their window of opportunity is closing fast.

High on his discovery with the Feldmans at the now named "Americo Creek," Americo reports back to the team at the miners meeting about his find. John is elated, and despite some naysaying from Gator, the entire team decides to go back to investigate.

Typically, miners believe that "gold rides on an iron horse," but this is not true for Greenland. Based on their resources and time, the miners, physically and mentally drained, search for what they know is on Storø: rubies and sapphires.
