Jake Herak
The past year brought a whirlwind of excitement and challenges to Montana’s dedicated lion hunter, Jake Herak, and his newlywed wife, Anika. Their summer wedding marked the beginning of a new chapter in their lives, filled with dreams of building a cabin on their recently acquired land. However, mounting expenses and the soaring cost of construction materials forced them to delay their cabin project for another year.
Now, as another winter approaches, Jake prepares to return to his crucial role as the first line of defense against the menacing predators that roam the Tobacco Root Mountains, posing a threat to the residents and livestock of the Ruby Valley below. Armed with a formidable pack of nine fully grown and expertly trained dogs, Jake’s team is stronger than ever. This season, his sights are set on the challenging Upper Ruby area, which has witnessed a surge in mountain lion populations.
Overcoming obstacles related to access, terrain, and the unpredictable mountain weather, Jake is unwavering in his determination to tackle the escalating lion issue. He knows that if there’s a year to contain these predators, it’s now. With a heart full of resolve and a pack of loyal companions by his side, Jake is poised to confront the challenges of the Upper Ruby area and protect the land he holds dear.

Tom is my favorite Mountain Man. I like them all except for Eustice. Basically he seems very lazy and uses people. Annoying to watch him.
Don’t think he is lazy at all he uses primitive tools to do his work and does it quite well with what he has to work with. Makes some beautiful Furniture he sells to make money! He’s not lazy at all
