Chapter 6- 10 Summary

Chapter Six

While Alekhin is at the cabin, Mack is fifty miles away preparing traps. Mack has only been eating berries since the canned food ran out. His strength is running low and he knows he has got to eat some protein soon if he expects to keep moving in these sub-zero temperatures.

When he wakes up a man, Yakov is pointing an AK-47 at him.
