ABOUT THE SHOW
THE ELEMENTS WILL TEST YOU, ISOLATION TEMPT YOU, BUT THE CHALLENGE WILL RESTORE YOU AT THE TOP!
Each week, “The 72hr Wilderness Challenge” embarks on an epic adventure with a chosen individual, deep in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest, for a weekend of reviving, rebuilding, restoring and healing.
In today’s modern fast paced world of tech gadgets and social media, it’s pretty easy to experience loneliness, depression and even feel like we’ve become disconnected. And sometimes we just need to simply unplug for a bit - however, it's more challenging than most think.
Each episode, friends/family challenge someone they feel would benefit from disconnecting and attempting the 72Hr Wilderness Challenge. This quality time in the Pacific Northwest Wilderness helps give participants a chance to unplug and regroup. Throughout the weekend surprise guest mentors also join and surprise the group.
About the Hosts
The series is executive produced and hosted by award winning producer/director Jay Hix Jones and wife Kara. Having been one of the producers on the A&E Emmy nominated hit series, “Hoarders” since 2012, Jones goes from helping people un-clutter their homes to now helping un-clutter their hearts and minds. Jones is a working media professional with several popular tv producing credits to his name ("Extreme Makeover: Home Edition", "Ice Road Truckers", "Hoarders", etc.), and is excited to get out from behind the camera for a change.
Backstory
The Jones' daughter, Hunter Rose (9), was diagnosed and treated for stage four high risk neuroblastoma from 2017-2020, right in the middle of developing this series. Little did the Joneses know then, they would soon need the escape just as much as the participants they created the series for. They had to stop production of the series to focus all of their time and energy on getting Hunter Rose better. Hunter Rose is now all done with treatment and doing amazing, which means the show is a go, again!!! The Joneses are dedicating the series to anyone and everyone who is going through a challenging time. They understand, because they have been there. Kara, "Spending time in the wilderness will absolutely change your life, and we're going to prove it to you!"
Hungry Fish Media is set to produce “The 72hr Wilderness Challenge”, which Jones co-created with Kara and his cousin Dr. Charles Hix to help people reconnect with what matters most in life.
