The Drought

[AaronCapenBanner · 9/10 · 28 November 2014]

James "Grizzly" Adams(Dan Haggerty) along with his friends Mad Jack(Denver Pyle) and Nakoma(Don Shanks) are forced to deal with a growing problem which is a drought that has plagued the valley, endangering the water supplies for both humans and animals. Adams makes drip sacks for the animals to drink from, and tries to use water barrels which collect runoff from melting snow, but the new threat of a forest fire may be prove to be disastrous if not quickly put under control, and all three of them also pray for rain to end both the drought and fire... Exciting and thoughtful episode focuses on the harshness yet mercy of nature itself, and how men deal with it to survive.
