Jack London and his companions race against time to travel 550 miles up the Yukon River before winter stops their progress. When they fall short of their goal, they survive for eight months of dire conditions in a tiny cabin before they can continue their journey. The experience forces an early end to Jack’s dreams of riches in the Yukon.
