Colin O’Brady hosts the Cajuste family from Austin, Texas and the Daynes family from San Diego, California. The Cajuste Family look to spend more time together than their busy lives usually allow, while the Daynes hope to honor their youngest, Eli, who has down syndrome. The families will compete in survival challenges, before spending 3 days in the wild on a 13-mile survival race.
