3.0 million Total Viewers climbed to the season three finale of HISTORY(R)'S hit unscripted series MOUNTAIN MEN Sunday evening, making the show cable's number one program for the night. The series, which follows the real-life challenges of six men as they use time-honored skills, true grit and sheer cunning to live a life of total freedom deep in America's wilderness, also averaged 1.1 million Adults 25-54 viewers at 9:00pm ET/PT, according to Nielsen Research.

From Alaska's Northern Range to Appalachia's Blue Ridge Mountains these MOUNTAIN MEN are the last of their kind. This season, Marty, Tom, Eustace, Rich, Charlie and new Mountain Man, Kyle, confronted the most brutal winter to descend on America in decades. And as they carved their lives from the untamed ranges of America, record sub-zero temperatures and powerful whiteouts brought them to the edge of survival. Predators were a constant threat but the meanest beast in the wild was Mother Nature herself, and this year she gave them hell. They had to stay one step ahead of the deadly cold while braving the extremes of a remote wilderness where a single misstep can send you into the bone-breaking jaws of a grizzly bear or leave you STRANDED with no help for miles around.
