Synopsis
There are people in this world... who go looking for adventure... in the wilderness. Even if they're not quite as hard core as the guy in the book / movie Into the Wild, it seems like most Yukoners fall into this category. Long-time Yukoner James McCullough is one of the rare exceptions. When Jesse and Mark learn about the disdain the self-described "actor / singer / dancer" harbours for the Great Outdoors, they set the wheels in motion to "help" him overcome his problem. Or maybe they're just having a laugh at James' expense. Either way, Smells Like Yukon winds up taking a walk on the mild side. [READ MORE]
