Plot Synopsis

Set deep in the backcountry of Idaho's Frank Church Wilderness (aka The Frank), RIVER OF NO RETURN is a one-hour reality series that follows a tight-knit community of homesteaders who rely on themselves, the help of their neighbors, and a seasoned set of survival skills to endure challenging and isolating winters in order to remobilize their extraordinary lives in the stunning, remote wilderness come spring The only direct way to access this rugged region of Idaho is a daring flight through steep canyons on a bush plane or a harrowing jet boat journey through Class 5 whitewater rapids on the Salmon River, also known as "The River of No Return." Within the 2.3 million acres of secluded wilderness lives a small community dependent on the pilots, boat captains and each other to survive. Under these circumstances, the residents of "The Frank" tackle everyday life in one of America's last frontiers where they face the many tests Mother Nature throws in their direction; navigate the ordinary domestic challenges of home and family-life; and forge unbreakable bonds with those who share in their unique lifestyle. Within this remarkable confluence of old-world tradition and modern-day reality, RIVER OF NO RETURN spotlights how these homesteaders - from twenty-somethings seeking to test their limits, to the living legends of the River who have chosen to spend their lives "back there" - live life on their own terms.
