The "Ax Men" are back, and they're bigger, badder and tougher than ever. History Channel's "Ax Men" is the  first ever non-fiction series about the treacherous life of Pacific Northwest timber cutters. Going deeper into the forest, high into the sky and even down into the sea, the new season of "Ax Men" follows two leading teams from last season along with three new companies, racing to fall the most timber during logging's most dangerous season.

For more than a hundred years, larger than life characters, many of whom are members of logging families who go back to the time when the West was being settled – have spent their days among towering trees and powerful machines and their nights in outposts far from the comforts of civilization. "Ax Men" tells the remarkable story, detailing the history of the logging industry and how technology has transformed life for today's logger, while the struggle of man versus nature stays the same.

This season, "Ax Men" picks up with two of Oregon's top logging companies from last year, J.M. Browning Logging of Astoria and Vernonia's Pihl Logging. Adding to the competition are three newcomers, each bringing something different to the table. Rygaard Logging of Port Angeles, Washington, a fiery father-son team; R&R Conner Aviation of Conner, Montana, which utilizes helicopters to maximize its output; and S&S Aqua Logging of Aberdeen, Washington, a team of diving loggers who fish for timber in some of the Pacific Northwest's most treacherous waters.

Over the course of twelve episodes, "Ax Men" will follow these five logging crews through a season of fighting mechanical failures, relentless weather and unpredictable terrain. We'll witness how loggers battle the elements, picking up where their fathers and grandfathers left off, to conquer America's final frontier.

Danger is a full-time job on "Ax Men," as these brave men put everything on the line each and every day to retrieve the timber with which we build our country. Snapped cables, runaway logs and razor-sharp chainsaws are just some of the dangers that threaten their lives daily. Even with new technology that should make the job easier, it all boils down to the toughness and perseverance of the logging crews. Anything and everything can and does go wrong on "Ax Men." Not everyone will survive, but those who do will earn their place in a long line of men who call themselves "Ax Men."
