Jenn isn’t a seasoned camper like Alex but she agrees to let him take her to one of his favourite spots, the secluded Blackfoot Trail. On their first night, they have a strange encounter with a guy named Brad (Eric Balfour). By the time they’re on their third day trekking in the forest, they still haven’t reached the Blackfoot Trail and Alex has to admit he’s gotten them lost.
