J.M. Browning and Pihl Logging are joined by two new teams of newcomers, Rygaard Logging and S&S Aqua Logging, in a race to see which team can cut down the most timber in the year's most dangerous season.

After just starting the race, men from the groups begin quitting; Jay Browning's big financial gamble shows that it won't pay out; the Aqua Logging crew attempts to reel in what could be a once in a lifetime catch.

A helicopter logging company makes it's presence know in the competition; Dustin tries to convince his father into returning to Pihl Logging; a member of the Rygaard team must face his fear when he has to climb a 100-foot tall tree; Jimmy and James watch their prized log fall through their hands.

R&R Conner Aviation have to make a decision to either keep their workers safe or to amp up production; Jimmy and James battle a deadhead log known as "Moby Dick."

A member of the Rygaard crew fights to save his job; Jimmy heads into minefield laced waters; the pilot from R&R gets trapped in fog.

A helicopter is trapped when a fog rolls over a mountain; Jimmy's barge is threatened to be destroyed; and a crew of a downhill logging site faces challenges.

The bosses weigh through some tough decisions concerning the new guys, and one greeenhorn will be released.

The crews receive some new loggers. Then, a search is conducted when a cutter disappears. Also, tempers flare among the aqua loggers.

A new pilot endangers the helicopter when he becomes reckless. Bad weather delays the aqua loggers; and a greenhorn attempts to prove himself.

The crews rush to meet their goals as logging season nears it's end, and one logger is let go.

The season two finale finds a fight erupting within one crew. Elsewhere, Jimmy has trouble with his barge, and a pair of crews are facing disasters.
