Along the way they chase rescue beacons, run low on fuel in snow-blown Canada, meet and fight grisly, attacking mutant defenders at an abandoned NORAD base; and finally get blown from the sky and crash in the southern Yukon. Here they finally meet more survivors of the bio/nuclear attack. The only problem is-can they make it out from this mile-high valley which imprisons them? Before their food and supplies run out?

Intriguing questions indeed. Find the incredible answers . The journey continues.

The harrowing episodes within these pages slowly reveal the disturbing answers. Find them.
