As they near Sunset Point, they come across a strange and evasive group of Eastern Europeans that seem to be living off the land. It’s an awkward situation, and Kate and her group quickly move on. As the girls reach Sunset Point, they encounter three rock climbers, lead by Ethan (Ben Loyd Holmes), and much to her annoyance Kate’s friends quickly become friendly with the lads.
