Definately. And personally, I like the music that goes with the show, too. Which he did himself. I definately respect the guy a lot. It takes a lot to be out there alone for a week at a time. No family, no one, nothing. And he keeps on doing it.

New episodes start at 9pm tonight.

Put it on Discovery Channel tonight at 9pm. New episodes begin with our very own Sierra Nevada mountains.

One of the things I always pay attention to is what plants are safe to eat. I've always wanted to know about my local backyard wilderness foods.

i just watched it, pretty good. it was the sierra nevadas.

he is very knowledgeable and seems cool but there's a good possibility that he's anti ohv. it's like the matrix, 'if your not one of us your one of them'

I doubt it. In "Off the Grid" where he takes his family into the backcountry to build a house - they have ATVs. You'd think being in the back country and owning ATVs and being the explorer he is - it's only fitting that he's cruising trails out there himself.

Besides, without logging roads and 4x4 exploration, he would not have the land he had to build the house on in the first place.

I'm just sayin, so far other than it's title there is pretty much a 0.00013% of non-firearm related threads in this forum. This is not a huge deal, but you might as well have just had a PBB gun forum.

Koolaid? Fuck, I'm better armed than half you fuckers Then again, I spend more time outside too.

Better armed because your Larue mount holds zero after being thrown from a 4 story building or better armed because you have a laser AND a flashlight on your cut down shotgun?
