So, what happened?

Without the protectors,

the Shadow People came

to haunt these mountains.

Consider it the white man's curse.

He's just trying to scare you.

Trail talk.

Ghost stories.

I dunno, I find it fascinating.

I'm just trying to tell you guys

about the legend, that's all.

I think it's sad what we did to them.

The Cherokee.

It was actually disease

that killed more Indians than anything.

Stuff the Europeans brought over

that they weren't immune to.

It's true.

I'm turning in, you guys.

We got a busy day tomorrow,

I suggest you do the same.

Good night, Drake.

What are you doing?

Nothing, taking a piss.

Is that weed?

No, no, no, no way.

I can smell it.

I don't care, I'm cool,

let me have some.

Seriously?

Yeah, of course.

Used to smoke all the time in college.

You know, I used to play

guitar in a metal band.

Of course, that was a long time ago.

Come on.

Come on.

Okay, fine.

Sh.

Sh.

Sh.

That's harsh.

Yeah, it's good weed, be careful.

Thanks, I'm good.

What was that?

Did you hear that?

I dunno, maybe.

- Boo!

- Oh my God.

Damn it, Drake.

I almost sh*t myself.

What are you guys doing out here?

Nothin'.

Takin' a piss.

Together.

Come on.

You shouldn't leave the campsite.

It's dangerous out here after dark.

Ah, get out of here, out!

What was that?

A bear.

He got into the food.

Is it gone, are we safe?

Yeah, he ran off,

he was just after the food.

Who left the food out?

I told you, you have to put everything

up in the tree at night.

Drake, I'm so sorry.

I forgot, I didn't mean to.

Clean this stuff up

before the bear comes back.

Hey, Drake, I'm sorry about last night.

I got hungry, and I forgot

to put my snack pack away.

It was stupid.

Munchies.

Look, you gotta stay focused, alright?

This is no joke.

Nature is not forgiving.

I'm gonna make a mountain man

out of you yet, Dan I promise.

Hey, so I was thinking,

we should all have trail names.

Reading this book, Just Passing Through,

they all have trail names.

'Kay.

Yours is Snickers.

That's awesome.

No, not like that, like Wandering Wolf

or Soaring Eagle, something cool.

How 'bout Wolf Down Snickers?

Whatever, Cheese, what's up with that?

My dad named me that as a kid

'cause all I ate was cheese.

This one time, I ate this whole block

of Velveeta cheese, and I was

stopped up for a week.

Been there, done that.

Way bad.

Yeah it was pretty strange

meeting Sam for the first time.

It was at Dad's funeral.

And neither of us had

any idea that he had

this whole other life going on.

I was an only child before that.

That's crazy.

You mad at him?

Your dad?

No, not really.

He's gone.

I've got a brother now, kind of cool.
