According to the official synopsis, Maya Alvaro (Cindy Busby) is a strong and hardworking businesswoman with a heart of gold. However, she is clearly not cut out as a rugged outdoorsy type.
When the CEO of her company invites her to an exclusive whitewater rafting retreat in the Rocky Mountains, Maya is not sure she is the woman for the job. However, if she can do this and survive a weekend of camping in the woods, the promotion of her dreams will be hers.

Moreover, as fate would have it, they are paired as a team to complete a series of team-building exercises together. These exercises include zip-lining, high-wire rope walking, and Maya’s most dreaded event, whitewater rafting.
