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 survival skills in America’s remote mountain regions. He appeared on the show from its inception in 2012 until 2017. Rich was known for his expertise in tracking and hunting mountain lions in Montana’s Ruby Valley, which he did to protect the community and his own dogs.
After participating in the show for several years, Rich decided to step away from the spotlight at the end of the sixth season. His departure was not due to any controversy or conflict but was a personal choice. Rich opted to retire from the show to focus on his own life and to enjoy his time without the intrusion of cameras. He wanted to spend more time with his wife, Diane, and to continue his outdoor pursuits more privately.
Since leaving “Mountain Men,” Rich has maintained a low profile, and there has been little public information about his activities post-show. The series has continued without him, featuring other individuals who also live off the land and practice traditional survival skills. Rich’s contribution to the series is fondly remembered by fans, and his expertise in tracking and wilderness survival is still respected.
