With his birthday approaching, Mick Dodge prepares for an epic celebration. But unlike most people, Mick doesn't celebrate with cakes and balloons. Instead, he embarks on an ambitious 25-mile journey to his favorite place on the Pacific Coast a birthday tradition he has kept alive for more than two decades. To get there, Mick has to travel down the foaming whitewater of the Sol Duc River and trek amongst the gigantic spruce trees of the Hoh Rainforest.
