About
The Woodsmen give you a chance to have a true insider’s look at the world that you’ve never seen before. A select group of people from the Pacific Northwest chose to live their lives free and away from everyday hustle of modern society. They build primitive dwellings on the trees and create what they need using their own hands. Living in the trees for them is their personal American dream. They lead their live using their own terms and regulations. They decided to separate from habitual comfort and conveniences of a big city. They dedicate themselves to trees, but their choice has been quite a risk and this reality demonstrates it.
This rugged and unforgiving landscape of the Pacific Northwest can be faced only with full commitment, never-ending patience and survival skills. Finding meat is a true challenge, growing vegetables is almost impossible due to cold climate and there’s constant lack of supplies. The participants of the project use simple methods and ingenuity carving out the lives they want to live in the harsh and sometimes dangerous natural environment.
The show tracks the stories of five men living in their own tree structures hunting, bartering and looking for more ingenious ways to survive.
