When Webb's beloved grandfather dies, he is told to come to the reading of the will.  In the will, his grandfather tells him he must take a journey through 110 kilometers of Canadian wilderness and find a secret in Devil's Pass.  The trip is hard and confusing for Webb.  But as his grandfather always said, what doesn't kill us makes us stronger.
