On Washington's Olympic Peninsula, Rygaard Logging is fighting to get back on track with the help of patriarch Craig Rygaard. But it's Craig's way or the highway, and his return to the mountain is rubbing some of the crew the wrong way. In Louisiana, the Swampman's under the gun to build and emergency treetop storm shelter to protect his empire from rising floodwaters. Meanwhile in Wyoming, David Zitterkopf's son Levi gets a crucial lesson in logging, but one wrong move could end it all. And on the Mississippi Delta, two long time bayou boys, Gary Champagne and Eddie Frashier, have given up their fishing days to try their hand at hauling in the green gold.

As Papac Alaska pushes deeper into their seven thousand acre site, Joe and Coatsy hike out into the harsh wilderness to devise a plan of attack for the next section of this massive project. Meanwhile in Washington, Rygaard Logging is struggling to get the wood out, and with Aidan slow to fill his family's cork boots, the company may be on its last legs. Down on the Mississippi Delta, newcomers Gary and Eddie need to step up their game before their venture goes belly up. In Florida, a mutiny forces Greg Chapman to get back to his roots and pull some logs to keep his company afloat, but the old pro may have lost his touch. And in Louisiana, the Swampman gets a massive log order just in the nick of time.
