Kodiak must rush a pregnant woman to the bush nurse. Kodiak's attempt to get an expectant mother through the snow to where professional help is available runs into a double confrontation with an angry husband and an escaping murderer.

Kodiak comes upon a plane crash in mountain country. Benton, the pilot, has been fatally shot and robbed of $80,000 he was transporting for the Bank of Anchorage. A witness is Abraham Lincoln Imhook, an elderly Eskimo who thinks he no longer has a reason to live and is reluctant to leave the mountain.

Kodiak must stop an old war buddy, Buzz Howard, from terrorizing the countryside after a dynamite blast shocks him into believing he is fighting the war again under heavy combat conditions. Construction crewmen Buzz and Sam are about to detonate a dynamite charge when Buzz sees two hunters entering the danger zone. While trying on his two-way radio to get Sam not to detonate, Buzz dashes into the area. Sam doesn’t hear his radio and blasts. Buzz' mind is affected as the result of the concussion and he is triggered back to the Korean War. He runs amok, wounds a man, and then begins shooting up the countryside as if the people are the enemy.
