New to Wild TV This Week- Heart of the Rockies
3-Part Canadian Docuseries Promises to Inspire Viewers
Edmonton, Alberta- Wild TV, the leading outdoor programming provider in Canada (Numeris*), has announced that Heart of the Rockies – Part 1 will air on Wild TV’s network this week, and will also be available for streaming on Wild TV+ starting the week of May 1st.
Heart of the Rockies is produced by the award-nominated, Alberta-based People & Peaks Productions and is part of their Canadian Rockies Stories, a collection of ½-hour documentaries that showcase authentic narratives, featuring the challenges that mountain men and women face while working in a remote wilderness landscape. Heart of the Rockies spotlights the narrative of Bazil Leonard, a legendary mountain man, and details Bazil’s struggle to heal his heart so he can travel by horseback into the Alberta Rockies, rather than the alternative which would be a very sedentary retirement. The documentary reveals a rich exposé detailing a simpler way of life on the trail and on the trapline. The production infuses hope into the viewer, sharing the spirit of how two seniors overcome their physical challenges to carry on a way of life that they both love.
Wild TV’s Vice President, Scott Stirling, commented: “The work that People & Peaks puts forth is spectacular and we’ve been so proud to showcase their award-worthy content over the years. On top of that, they’re a great group of folks to partner with and we look forward to many more years of working with the People & Peaks Productions team!”
People & Peaks Productions also commented: “People & Peaks Productions is excited about airing authentic documentaries featuring the Canadian Rockies tradition, culture and history on Wild TV, the most viewed hunting channel. We are proud to be part of the team and building a partnership with others who have a love of the land and nature. Thank you, Wild TV!”
