The Cahulawassee River is soon to be destroyed, along with the beautiful country that surrounds it. Eager to see it before it's gone, adventurer and outdoor fanatic, Lewis, organizes a trip for himself and his three friends, Ed, Drew and Bobby. They will canoe their way from top to bottom in search of great adventure. What they don't know is that they are in for much more than they originally bargained. Two mountain men take Ed and Bobby hostage. In a brave attempt to save his friends, Lewis kills one of the mountain men. A weekend of male bonding turns into a gut-wrenching fight for survival.
