Aerial Adventures - Season 1

Journey across America's last frontier to discover what it takes to survive in this extreme and fascinating world of shifting glaciers, icy peaks, and terrifying volcanoes.

The raw beauty of the Golden Coast attracts dreamers seeking fortune, fame, and mind-blowing experiences - there's possibility everywhere. But the California dream has never been easy.

The American Southwest is a land of fascinating contrasts - from its perennial desert landscape sculpted by nature to the man-made dazzling lights of Las Vegas - it continues to defy boundaries.

America has an incredible passion for flight. For bush pilots in Alaska, daredevils in Vegas, and even helicopter pilots performing daring rescues, there is nothing like the thrill of flight, in the freest skies on earth.

There's something about America's deserts and wide-open spaces that push people to extremes. In every corner of the 50 states, thrill seekers of all kinds gather in search of fun and games - and find them in the most unexpected.

Insurmountable obstacles for some, irresistible playgrounds for others: America's mountains mesmerize and captivate curiosity seekers around the world with their magnitude, beauty, and mystique.

From the impressive homes of ancient cliff dwellers to the houses of early settlers, to stunning urban landmarks, soaring skyscrapers, and even the U.S. Capitol Building in Washington, DC.

From the fog covered forests of Great Smoky, to the colorful walls of the Grand Canyon and the explosive geysers of Yellowstone, National Parks in the U.S. all have powerful stories to tell and cry out to be seen from above.

In the Northwest, visitors and locals alike are spoiled for choice. It has cities packed with innovation, towering volcanic peaks, one of the Nation's greatest rivers and a lava field that can stand in for the moon.

An aerial tour of the U.S. reveals plenty of unusual sites, including an airplane scrapyard, a training school for firefighters, a Stonehenge made of cars and much more.

The animals of Yellowstone National Park play their part in the natural order of the wild, cowboys round up cattle and mustangs, and sea lions and humpback whales gather in Alaska.

Tribal settlements thrive across the U.S., modern Wampanoag farmers continue the tradition of cranberry harvesting, and the tragic story of Geronimo is demystified.
