Discovery goes deep into the remote wilderness to explore the dangerous world of big money logging in the new series THE LAST WOODSMEN premiering Friday, November 15 @ 9PM ET/PT on Discovery Channel.
On a floating barge hundreds of miles from civilization, veteran logger Jared Douglas puts everything on the line to harvest the largest timber in the world. One misstep in this high-risk industry could cost tens of thousands of dollars, or even a life. Joining him at the edge of the world is a tight-knit crew of lumbermen who, with only axes and hand-held power saws, take down massive, highly valuable trees that can be worth up to $70K each.
“The amount of danger involved in harvesting wood – something we see in our everyday lives – is incredibly compelling,” Howard Lee, President of Discovery Networks. “THE LAST WOODMEN takes us deep into the secluded wilderness with these courageous and highly skilled loggers as they literally risk their lives. It’s a rarely explored, dangerous business which translates to incredibly engrossing television.”
Audiences can follow the conversation on social media with #TheLastWoodsmen, and follow Discovery on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok for more updates.
THE LAST WOODSMEN is produced for Warner Bros. Discovery by Warm Springs Productions in association with Jolt Life.
