Life Below Zero S02E01-E06 (2013)

Life Below Zero follows six people as they battle for the most basic necessities in the state with the lowest population density in the United States. Living at the ends of the world's loneliest roads and subsisting off the rugged Alaskan bush, they battle whiteout snow storms, man-eating carnivores, questionable frozen terrain, and limited resources through a long and bitter winter. Some of them are lone wolves; others have their families beside them. All must overcome despairing odds to brave the wild and survive through to the spring.

Season 2 , Episode 1 - “Hunt or be Hunted”
With winter over, and the ice melting, remote Alaskans face new dangers and deadly challenges in the changing season. In Eagle, wildlife waking from their months-long hibernation pose a new threat to Andy and Kate, who must “eat or be eaten.” Chip and Agnes take advantage of the post-ice-break-up flooding to try and capture beavers and river rats forced from their homes. The fur they could provide will be a valuable commodity for trade, but the pursuit itself is difficult and dangerous.

Season 2 , Episode 2 - “The Meltdown”
During the summer months, Sue’s camp in Kavik is generally busy with visitors who use the location as a launch point for expeditions into the wilderness. But the rapidly melting snow is encroaching on her runway. A flooded runway means no supplies and no business. In Noorvik, Chip and Agnes and their kids embark on a vital fishing trip hundreds of miles north. Everything they catch will be used for trade, selling and consumption.

Season 2 , Episode 3 - “The Mess of Success”
Sue, and her new staff member Rick, are almost ready for their paying guests to arrive at the Kavik River Camp. Just a couple details left to be dealt with: a lost filter for her water line and a missing shipment of frozen food. Without running water and food, her camp won’t open in time, which could devastate Sue’s livelihood. In Eagle, Andy and Kate are building a greenhouse that they hope will yield 80 percent of their food supply for the year.

Season 2 , Episode 4 - “Hungry Country”
In Chandalar, Glenn is running perilously low on food. His only option is to take to the waters and fish, but vicious mosquitos, and fish that aren’t taking the bait, make it a bigger hassle than expected. Sue is startled by a strange shadow on the horizon, but after heading into the tundra to investigate, she finds nothing. Determined not to have let her efforts go to waste, she heads to a nearby coal seam to try and gather some of the “black gold”.

Season 2 , Episode 5 - “No Time to Lose”
Summer is winding down and Sue needs to fill her freezer for the upcoming winter. She takes out the four-wheeler in an attempt to get close to a herd of caribou. Sue has plenty of options for a target, but it’s a long shot. Andy’s a believer in conserving resources, so this summer he is abandoning his king fish wheel for a fish net, which will take less of the dwindling salmon population from the river. But using a net is dangerous; fishermen have become caught in the line and taken overboard.

Season 2 , Episode 6 - “Long Road Home”
It’s summer in Chandalar, and the lack of food forces Glenn to pack his things and embark on the long journey back to Fairbanks. The low food supply makes this a race against time for Glenn. At the Hailstone camp, the family wakes up at the crack of dawn and embarks on their own journey to Agnes’s family camp to catch salmon for the winter months. In Kavik, part of Sue’s revenue comes from providing fuel for planes, but now she is completely out.
