In Golden, British Columbia the power and beauty of nature come together with a bang. Surrounded by the majestic Rocky Mountain Ranges, this small town is the centre of adventure for Western Canada - from the launch site at the top of Mount 7 to the white water of the Kicking Horse River. But for the crew, naturešs bounty comes at a steep price. During a river landing, the ultralight is snagged, dragged downstream and totally destroyed. Suddenly grounded, they meet up with a few pilots who reveal their own favorite flight paths, and head off in search of adventure - biking with the pros, jumping off mountains (with parachutes!) and getting to know the people who live the Golden life every day. - Meet the thrill seekers of the hang gliding Mecca of the West
