The Summit: Episode 9 airs Tuesday 30 May 2023 on Channel 9
On the eve of reaching the peak, the last five hikers have arrived at the final checkpoint. Jai warns them that this is their final chance to vote someone off the mountain and steal their money. Alex is voted off the mountain after a battle of logic versus emotion and strategy versus loyalty.
The final four have just hours to reach the summit before it closes. Kings Leap stands in their way. Isaac makes the first attempt, but is unsuccessful. Lulu has a hard time, but she and Brooke (who gets a visit from the mountain’s Keeper) and Jans (who also makes it) all make it. Isaac musters the courage to try again, and this time, despite faltering, he makes it across the obstacle to join Brooke, Lulu, and Jans, who are now safely on the other side.
The group is ecstatic, with only 300 metres of snowy hiking left before they reach the peak. However, just as they thought they were safe and sound, the Keeper of the Mountains showed up with one more duffel bag. In their haste, the players lose track of a bag containing a note that could alter the outcome of the game.

In the rugged Alps of New Zealand’s southern island, a group of strangers will embark on an epic quest unlike anything ever seen.
With their backpacks containing an equal share of $1 million dollars, the group must reach the peak of a distant mountain in just 14 days to win the cash they’re carrying.
Along the journey, they’ll need to work as a team as they tackle dangerous terrain, wild conditions and overcome adrenaline-charged challenges that block their path to the mountain.
But what happens when members of the group fall behind, will the rest of the trekkers slow down and risk not reaching it up the mountain in time? Or will they cut them loose and press ahead to cash in?
In a thrilling tale of endurance, survival and greed; morals will be tested, physical limits pushed, and bonds broken. Will they reach the summit in time and who will walk away with the money?
