The news at Les Stroud online states he is working on a new season of Survivorman right now and the first episode, which was shot in Ecuador, is in editing. It also mentions that Les is curently scouting locations in Africa for episodes 2 and 3.

However, it should be noted that this info is out of a date by at least a month judging by Les' blog. It shows that he was already shooting in Africa starting on February 4th. The episode starts off with simulated a "Hot Air Balloon crash".

From Les' Blog , it sounds like another excellent episode is in the works.

I'm psyched!

Regarding Ray Mears, I'd like to see more of his shows as well. I have a few, but not all of them, and the ones that I have are a few years old if not more. I'll check YouTube. Thanks for the heads up on that, billym.
