Can the Coast Guard Save Kayakers Trapped in a Glacier Ice Field?

When the weather turns deadly in the vast Alaskan wilderness, the highly trained men and women of the US Coast Guard risk their lives to answer the call. In this intense episode, a midnight distress beacon leads a helicopter crew to three severely hypothermic fishermen stranded in a life raft, triggering a massive 20-hour search across over 1,400 miles of freezing water for a missing crewmate. The action doesn't stop there as the team rushes to evacuate a 70-year-old man suffering from severe internal bleeding, guides stranded kayakers out of a treacherous Columbia Glacier ice field, and navigates rough winds to extract a 65-year-old hunter with broken ribs and a punctured lung.
