New Outdoor Channel Original Series “Life on the Edge” Chronicles Extreme Off-Grid Lifestyles in the Wild West of the Last Frontier - The Aleutian Islands

Outdoor Channel Deal Struck with Producers of Hit Series “Ice Airport Alaska”

Comes to Network in 2023

DENVER – Welcome to the “Wild West of the Last Frontier” – the Aleutian Islands. This Outdoor Channel original docu-series – Life on the Edge – chronicles the lives of fearless homesteaders and daring American entrepreneurs as they live off-the-grid in some of the harshest and most unforgiving terrain in the world. The original series will air in September 2023.

Life on the Edge focuses on adventure seekers that have opted to live in some of the most remote, inaccessible and extreme conditions on the face of the Earth. It is in this exact environment these hearty souls, who built their own infrastructures and life off-the-grid, choose to live in radically different ways.

“Outdoor Channel’s Life on the Edge will bring viewers to places that few have ever gone, or would dare to go,” Outdoor Sportsman Group Vice President of Planning and Scheduling Katie Gladstone said. “The stories of these American adventure seekers will prove daunting, exciting and inspiring to our viewers.”

Rare TV’s CEO Alexander Gardiner adds: “The Aleutians are the most extreme islands in America. Period. The islands are an ideal location for a new factual adventure series that the Outdoor Channel audience will love as much as our producers and directors did while making this extraordinary new series!”

The series features Americans who have identified this island archipelago as a land teeming with opportunity. The men and women in the series are determined to show the rest of the world new ways of living and working to protect the planet. Whether it is through harnessing raw tidal power to produce electricity, or off-grid settlers constructing self-sustaining dwellings in the most isolated, beautiful and unforgiving environments, the show and its characters are a range of wild and extraordinary storytellers. From the helicopter cowboys of the ultra-isolated Umnak Island to the construction of America’s most remote hunting lodge at Volcano Bay, Life on the Edge is a wild ride into the most unforgiving realms of the Last Frontier.

Life on the Edge is produced by Rare TV Ltd. and airs exclusively on Outdoor Channel. Executive Producers for Rare TV are Christian Broadhurst and Greg Chivers. The Series Producer is Tom Thompson. For more information about Life on the Edge on Outdoor Channel, visit: www.outdoorchannel.com.

Life on the Edge also can be seen on MyOutdoorTV (MOTV) in December 2023.
