Sixteen strangers will embark on a once-in-a-lifetime journey through the treacherous New Zealand Alps in an attempt to reach the peak of a distant, towering mountain. With their backpacks containing an equal share of $1 million, the group must traverse an exhausting distance in just 14 days in order to win the cash they are carrying. But not everyone will make it, as these strangers must work together to tackle the dangerous terrain, unforgiving Antarctic winds, heart-pounding challenges and gut-wrenching eliminations on their way to the peak. Tracking them along this journey is the "Mountain's Keeper" who will surprise the trekkers with brutal twists and force decisions that complicate an already grueling ascent. Morals and relationships will be tested when they must decide what to do if someone falls behind, because if the group fails to reach The Summit in time, all the prize money will be lost. |

The prize money is confusing in this. They say a million dollars but part of the show so far, as I’m on episode 2, is they Have to leave people behind and they lose that money. No choice they have to leave people. Seems scummy by the producers.
A very scripted show. It could have been a good reality race.
Well… eagerly awaiting the first episode….Just want to see if this is a literal rip off of the original of which there have been 2 seasons already….
I DO like the concept.. and i do like some twists and turns, but i also believe that those that make it to the top deserve the prizemoney without a popularity vote in the end…. think shows should stop with this nonsense in general….you made it..you win… done….not some weak lost and bitter person you voted off two weeks prior should have a say in that….
