I love this show.

 

I like the one couple with the wife who hunts with the Mosin.

She's a good shot, got a wolf tonight.

I like this show as well, some hard living out there.

The wife and I watch it also very cool show, sometimes it makes me want to drop everything and move out to the woods and live off the land but the wife really likes indoor plumbing LOL

lol, It really is not easy life, but sure dam is nice. from 1995-2000 I lived in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont, 20 miles south of Canadian border. At the end of 4 years, and for the next 10 months I lived almost completely off the land and boy it was tough. I lived in a 6x10 Cabin with just enough electricity to run a light, toaster oven and a dorm fridge. I had a 500' or so wire run from a old abandoned house with solar on the property that was turned into a barn like place for animals.  Water was gravity spring fed from 1/4 mile away in the woods. Bathed in the creek. I was completely alone 90% of the time. I fished everyday for browns, brookies, and rainbows. Hunted grouse and snowshoe hair when I could. Grew vegetables to eat and extras were sold @ farmers markets. Had chickens, pigs and sheep for meat and eggs. My boss also was into aquaculture and raised trout in these inovative self sustainable systems. The trout we sold @ farmers market and stocked ponds. I did buy a few staples in town  from sales at the market or bartered with some other locals. Before hand I had studied and apprenticed sustainable living learning the skills and trades to do it. (FYI I was not fat back then). I really wanted to live that way but I came back to NJ to make money farming, so I buy land somewhere and could pursue that dream. I ended up getting injured and stuck here and got fat and so on. I would love to be able to go back but unfortunetly I dont think I'm able to do that lifestyle any longer in the shape I'm in now. I respect that life.

This show brings the wild side out of me.. Really interesting to see people live off grid in near self sustaining life styles... Looks like a hard life for sure, yet a simple and enjoyable one at that. As a young adult, it looks like a lot of fun, but you can immediately see as you get older things get exponentially harder. That one chick who lives in the absolute middle of no where, who HAS to be secluded seems a bit whacky, she lives under 10 feet of snow for like 10 months out of the year. And she is so reliant on gas/fuel to live... doesnt seem like a position anyone would willingly put themselves in... everyone else can basically live off the land. 

Is this a new show? If so how many episodes already?

I think they might be in season two I like the show but it is too repetitive in the episodes like many shows today they could be half hour shows if they didn't recap everything all the time. I just don't enjoy shows like that.

Its on Sundays on National Geo Channel, probably about 6 or 7 episodes so far

yea, that lady is hard to figure. Really out in mid of nowhere yet appears to have a huge sprawling complex of sheds, trailers, buildings...and is always just getting by with the fuel. not sure how she makes a living or was able to get setup there. The one young dude has a nice setup just bums me a bit when he traps and they show a cool lynx or wolverine stuck and he whips out his 22 to put them down. I dont mind the shoot just not the trap. But I get the survival part and he gets good $ for the furs.
