The three men build a fire and spend the night by the lake. The next morning, Charles uses a compass leaf to determine the direction of south. They begin a hike that way, but encounter an enormous Kodiak bear; it gives chase. Bob saves Charles as they escape over a log bridge, leaving Charles in doubt over his earlier suspicions that Bob was planning to kill him for Mickey. The group continues on, but find themselves back at their old campsite. Stephen accidentally stabs his leg while making a spear to fish with. That night, the bear attacks their camp, killing Stephen and chasing the other two men away.
