Story

Daron opens the season announcing that sixteen new castaways arrive in the Beartooth pass in South Central Montana. The castaways were going to be split into two tribes: Kuna and Baanai, which stood for fire and water respectfully.

The tribes began with Bryce as the first member of Kuna.

“	I got picked first, so I was really good to be on my tribe.	”
– Bryce

Grant was the first member on the Baanai tribe and Garret was allocated to the Kuna tribe. Then after all the members were chosen the tribes ended as followed.

Baylee	Brandon	Grant	Hunter	Jelks	Julia	Luke	Paris
Kuna
Austin	Beverly	Bryce	Garret	Jenni	Jonah	Jordan	Skylar

“	Well I'm looking at the cast really and I'm pretty young. We got some young kids on our team and its gonna, and it gonna be stiff competition, but I'm excited for the competition so...	”
– Hunter

“	I'm part of the Kuna tribe which is fire. Honestly we're just too hot to handle.	”
– Garret

Daron then states that Hidden Immunity Idols were in play and that they were protect the user from votes at Tribal Council. He then shows the two tribes their supplies and sends them off for the next three days.

It starts off with the Baanai tribe hiking to their camp.

“	So when the game started, I was kinda feeling a little iffy. Because we don't have a lot big man power on our team. So it looks like it just going to be me, Hunter, and Luke. So I was a little scared about that.	”
– Grant

Once the tribe arrived at camp, the Baanai tribe quickly set up their tarps and made themselves their new home. The tribe connected and worked together to get it done without any arguments. Then once the camp was completed the tribe members quickly spread trying to create a strategy. Two final two deals were quickly made between Hunter and Brandon and Luke and Grant.

“	I think the most untrustworthy person is me.	”
– Luke

Over at Kuna, the tribe is arriving at their campsite.

“	I think I got a good tribe. Were going to have to wait going into the first challenge. But we have been talking and building up as a community.	”
– Bryce

“	I'm not really sure what to expect, I haven't watch much Survivor before.	”
– Austin

The tribe gathers up in a circle and introduce themselves and then begin to work on their camp.

Back at Baanai, the tribe members are out searching for firewood. The men realize that the men have a 6-2 majority over the women and begin to bond. A solid alliance of Luke, Grant, and Hunter starts to form but Brandon follows Hunter around making it difficult for one to form. While this is all going on, Luke decides to mess with his fellow tribe members by forming fake alliances with Baylee and Paris.

Back to Kuna, the tribe is huddled up again and share their life stories. All of the members are skeptical of alliances, and willing to have anybody approach them other than themselves.

Jordan and Grant find the tree mail and reads it to their tribes respectfully and it fades to the immunity challenge.

At the challenge, the runners were fairly even throughout that part of the challenge. But once it was time for the fire making, Baanai tried to set up a base for their fire so it would last. But Kuna used just newspaper that would allow the fire to rise quick and burn the twine that led to their victory. Baanai was later to go to tribal council.

After the Kuna tribe arrives back at camp, they begin to celebrate and reflect on their challenge performance.

Back at Baanai, they arrive and realize that they have to vote someone off tonight. Instantly, Jelks and Paris blame themselves for the challenge loss because they were the challenge builder. Brandon, Luke, Grant, and Hunter form a strong alliance and focus to vote off Jelks or Julia.

“	We were thinking of Jelks because when we asked him about the fire thing, and him being the second guy to the fire. He was a little reluctant and wasn't really willing to do it. But also campsite, Julia has been a little uneasy and hasn't been doing too much so it kinda seems like she wants to get voted out. So I think its between those two, so we'll have to see what happens.	”
– Luke

Jelks begins to speculate and forms an alliance with Paris because of their age and Julia thinks Baylee will keep her in the game to keep the girls' numbers up.

At Tribal Council, Baanai discussed that they needed to keep the tribe strong and vote out the weakest. Julia felt same due to her relationships with the tribe. Then on the other hand, Paris and Jelks did not feel all of the tribes' blame from the challenge due to the fact they lost. Julia was then voted out 7-1.

Challenges

Immunity

Challenge: The Key is Fire
The tribes are divided up into two groups: Runners and Fire Builders. The six Runners would race up the hill collecting sticks, newspaper, and the final person would grab the matches. The final two people would build a fire that would have to burn high enough to burn through a piece of twine. If any part of the fire structure touched the twine, a disqualification would occur. The first team to burn though the twine wins.
Winner: Kuna

Voting Confessionals

“	(voting for Jelks) Voting for Jelks because I know it's really hard to decide and I think he's still pretty young, and I don't think he's going to compete as well. Sorry.	”
– Julia

“	(voting for Julia) I think Julie should be going home. She's not the strongest player. She's not necessarily a team player. She mentioned earlier that she would be ok with going home and I know that a lot of these people want to stay here for the entire game.	”
– Jelks

Final Words

“	K, well I kinda saw it coming. But I'm ok with it. I had a good time, it was fun. There was very nice people. I think I should have had a strategy and talk to more people, but, yeah, I didn't.	”
– Julia Rubia
