The Weather Channel has picked up the docu-series “Rocky Mountain Wreckers,” which is set to premiere April 13.
From the producers of “Highway Thru Hell” and “Heavy Rescue: 401,” which also air on Weather Channel, the weekly hourlong series aims to take viewers behind-the-scenes of what it’s like to work on a recovery crew in the Rocky Mountains.
The official synopsis for the show reads: “From battling raging fires to managing hazardous spills, audiences will witness the high-stakes challenges faced by these professionals. Each episode immerses viewers in the adrenaline-filled lives of the recovery teams as they tackle wreckage with an impressive array of heavy equipment and unparalleled expertise — all while racing against the clock.”
“Rocky Mountain Wreckers” is part of Weather Channel’s focus on presenting programs that showcase “how weather dramatically affects our lives,” said Byron Allen, founder and chairman of Weather Channel parent company Allen Media Group. “In ‘Rocky Mountain Wreckers,’ we follow the gripping experiences of wrecker crews confronting extreme weather conditions as part of their everyday jobs.”
The series hails from British Columbia-based production banner Great Pacific Media and Canadian TV heavyweight Bell Media.
“We’re thrilled to celebrate the incredible work of the featured recovery teams and our amazing production crew, and grateful to our partners at The Weather Channel and Bell Media for their essential support,” said David Way, CEO of Great Pacific Media.
“Rocky Mountain Wreckers” bows April 13 with back-to-back episodes at 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. ET.
