Rich Lewis retired from the show “Mountain Men” after the sixth season to enjoy a quieter life away from the cameras.
Rich Lewis was a popular cast member on the History Channel’s reality series “Mountain Men,” which follows the lives of people living off the grid and practicing traditional survival skills in America’s remote mountain regions. He appeared on the show from its second season in 2013 until his departure after the sixth season in 2017.
Living in Montana’s Ruby Valley, Rich was known for his expertise in tracking and hunting mountain lions, which he did to protect the community’s livestock. His skills as a hunter were unmatched, and he played a significant role in maintaining the balance between the wildlife and the local farming community.
Despite his popularity on the show, Rich decided to step away from the spotlight to focus on his personal life and enjoy his retirement without the intrusion of television cameras. His departure was met with disappointment from fans, but many understood his desire for privacy and a more peaceful lifestyle. Since leaving the show, Rich has kept a low profile, and not much is publicly known about his current activities. He has chosen to live a life closer to nature, which is what he loved most about being a mountain man.
