Grenada Jungle

S5 E1: Les pits his jungle survival skills against the incredibly diverse mountain jungle terrain of Grenada’s largest active mountain, Mt. St. Catherine. Nestled along the invisible line where the Caribbean Sea meets the Atlantic Ocean, northeast of Venezuela, this island jungle feels mysterious, shrouded in mist, veiled from the sun by thick blankets of cloud. For this, the high-altitude jungle has earned the name “Cloud Forest”. Boasting its original ecosystem, the jungle is home to mona monkeys, tarantulas, scorpions, armadillo, iguana, parrots and possums –an abundance of food for Les if he can catch it. Les must use his years of jungle survival experience to avoid the many poisonous plants and trees indigenous to the jungle – all while carrying more than 50 pounds of camera gear on his back.
