Episode list

Mike Archer is looking for a change of scenery after his mom passes. He picks up a new job as a fire watcher as a way of getting away and working on his book. After getting hired he hikes out to his new home for the next half a year. The first night out in the wilderness though brings some unexpected and eerie surprises in the form of creepy whispers and a loud crashing of trees. Things may not be as peaceful as he was hoping.

Mike and Amber have formed a quick bond. While Mike wants to focus on his writing, it is nice to have someone to talk to. Especially after his creepy first night. The next morning, Amber helps Mike find some coffee and explains to him the day-to-day of fire watching. It seems like it'll be boring for the most part, but that's what Mike wants. Nothing but time to work on his book. But after three days pass, another weird interference comes over the radio. Is this a repeat of the first night..?

After hearing some classical music playing over the radio, Mike informs Amber who then informs Gene. Worried that there may be some hikers in the area, Gene gives Mike the go ahead to kick out any trespassers, since the area around Tower 4 is closed to the public. Mike takes the day to head to an area known as Site 5. There, he finds tents but no people. He also finds something else... something dangerous.

After Mike's close call, he heads back to the tower, hoping that eventually the campers make their way passed. But they never do. Weeks go by and Mike focuses on his writing. Amber offers help and keeps him focused. But one night, after discovering a mysterious notebook, Amber informs Mike that he needs to go on another long hike. The campers are still missing.

Mike is on a rescue mission of sorts. He packs a bag and even a tent for his upcoming trek. He sets out for Enos Lake in search of the missing father and son. But when he gets there he finds a strange man in dress clothes. Mike chases after the man, but it's all for naught. The man disappears and Mike is once again alone. At night, after camp is set, a storm moves in... but so does something else... something big.

Mike hightails it out of Enos Lake just as the sun rises. As he makes his way back to the tower he gets the sudden urge to contact Gene. Since he is near Over Arch he should be able to reach him. But it turns out it's all for nothing when Gene dismisses everything he says. When Mike does eventually make it back to Tower 4, he finds a surprise waiting for him... but what could it mean?

Mike is getting annoyed with Amber, after she once again doesn't believe him. He turns off his radio and takes some time for himself. But he ends up focusing more on the journal and surrounding mysteries rather than his writing. After Mike gets a drunken call from Amber one random night, he discovers the strange numbers on his laptop just may be a lock combination. But to which lock?

Mike wakes up in a cave, hurt and confused. He spots a strange man walking around, mumbling and shuffling through papers. Eventually they talk, but things don't become clearer. The man wants help, but Mike is ready to be rid of the woods and everything in it.

Mike feels he needs to help, but has no idea how. And after much deliberating and more confusing talk, he eventually decides to give up and head back to the tower. He's done with all the craziness and ready to quit. He deems tonight his last night. But will he be able to leave?
