Thanks for posting.
Over the holiday break we were at Jay Peak enjoying the skiing and new water park. In the water park they have a jumbo screen tv. One of the commercials during the football game was for Building Wild. Both my wife and I couldn't remember for the life of us what the name of the show was. So once again thanks- I know have it in my calendar and look forward to the first episode.

Very interesting especially because we boat right by Gustavus AK on our way Halibut and Salmon fishing. There are some very intersting cabins along that part of Icy Strait between Hoonah AK and Elfin Cove AK

Building Wild: Dirty Dozen Deer Lodge
Premieres Tuesday, Jan. 14, 2014, at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT
The Cabin Kings are charged with building a rustic hunting cabin for farmer Mike Carney and Mike's 11 best friends. These buddies since childhood refer to themselves as "The Dirty Dozen," and they've been spending hunting season together since they were in Elementary school. Mike has a big dream and an even bigger group of friends, but he's short on time and money. Paulie and Tuffy will repurpose a 100-year-old barn (that's one stiff wind away from complete collapse) on their 300-acre property into a brand-new cabin. And they'll do it the old-fashioned barn-raising way. It takes 16 men to hold up the first wall. Struggling together, they raise the wall and get it nailed in place. The men celebrate, but there is still a lot of work to be done. Will the Cabin Kings be able to transform this ancient barn into a modern marvel that sleeps 12?
Building Wild: Movable Beast
Premieres Tuesday, Jan. 21, 2014, at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT
The Cabin Kings are working with an ex-Navy SEAL who wants to build multiple camps to accommodate all his friends and families. While touring potential build sites on the property in "The Beast" — a 1963 military cargo truck that the clients use to drive all over their land — Paulie proposes a wild solution: taking the truck and turning it into a mobile cabin that you can drive anywhere on the property. The idea is just insane enough to work. But in order to set the foundation of the main cabin, the Cabin Kings and crew have to move huge boulders into position — a big undertaking in the best of conditions, but on a remote location, a nearly impossible job. Plus, because there are no roads to deliver materials, some local loggers will have to build their own road. Paulie and Tuffy also learn that the truck is called "The Beast" for a reason; it's an ornery, lumbering piece of equipment with no shocks, and the first time they try to pull it parallel to the cabin, the deck is almost taken out!
Building Wild: Log Jam
Premieres Tuesday, Jan. 28, 2014, at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT
Pat and Ryan Sweeney have a father-and-son logging business and a pile of "trash" that's about to become treasure. Paulie pitches the idea of building a "cabin fit for a logger," constructed entirely of materials found on the property. But they will have to contend with a steep mountain trail nearly a mile long. Paulie puts into action an idea to build the entire front façade of the cabin with stacked firewood to create a cordwood look. He then throws in an extra project by converting the discarded pontoon boat they found at the bottom of the hill into a floating party island. The team rigs up a log-hauling machine to pull the massive boat up the mountain, but halfway up, Paulie navigates the pontoon right into a tree! Once successfully at the top of the mountain, Paulie and Tuffy rush to strip the boat and build a new deck with a diving platform. With all of the new additions, will the thing even float?

It was Nat Geo. I was certain the date was right, I guess I screwed up the channel. 
Good news, that missed episode will show again Friday, Nat Geo channel at 9PM

I can't find anything here in BC Canada called Building Wild. We do have a show on the DIY channel called Building Alaska. Could that be the same show? The description for Tuesday is "The clock continues to tick down as the three builders each face their own forms of adversity."

We too get Building Alaska. It is not the smae as Building Wild but looks interesting and will have to do until Building Wild gets to Nat Geo Canada.

Hattie, its called Building Wild and its about cabin builder in Alaska. Its different than Building Alaska, but the same principle. The Building Alaska is on the DIY network (we have than in the US too), while Building Wild is on the National Geographic network. I had made an error on the channel in my "subject", but corrected it in the post late. Look for Building Wild on the National Geographic channel.

Nope. No Building Wild picked up on our satellite. Hopefully one of these days we'll get it. We do get the National Geographic channel, but it isn't listed. It was probably booted for something with more Canadian content.

Last night, I was cruising the comcast box on "my favorite" channels, which is discovery, military, nat geo, all educational stuff. And I go to Nat Geo because it said the Barretts Auto Auction was on. Building Wild was on, caught the very beginning. But it was listed as the auto auction. Anyway, watch the episode on the guys building the cabin for the farmers 12 hunting buddies.
I found the episode on youtube, but it was banned by them, but after following links, found this to the video.
It was called "The Dirty Dozen Deer Lodge"
http://haxotv.us/watch-building-wild-s01e01-dirty-dozen-deer-lodge-480p-hdtv-x264-msd .
I couldnt view it, it required a plug in, my PC is almost full (hard drive) and my new PC (with a 1TB hard drive) shows up next week, so I didnt download it.
