Extreme survival series Alive returns with four new stories about human endurance against the odds, from the producers of the award-winning Touching the Void . In 1999 three British mountaineers attempted the climb of a lifetime on North America’s highest peak: Mt. McKinley in Alaska. But after a terrible blizzard strikes it becomes clear that one member of the team might not make it down the mountain alive, leaving his fellow climbers to make a terrible decision. Do they stay together and await a rescue that may never come or leave their friend behind to face almost certain death?
