Home builder and jack-of-all trades Johnny Littlefield is taking survival expert Dave Canterbury and engineer and former military colonel Dick Strawbridge on a 25-mile hike through the Berkshire Mountains of western Massachusetts.

The guys go to the swampiest state in America, Louisiana, to see if they have the skills to get an old jeep through 50 miles of its largest swamp, The Atchafalaya Basin, with no food, a canteen of water each, and a small swamp survival kit.

Dave challenges Johnny and Dick to go car-camping in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, Canterbury-style. Starting at a junkyard, they each select a vehicle to drive through the logging roads and ending at the northernmost tip of Lake Superior.
