Mountain Men Take on City Style

The typical day-to-day grind for most people might consist of getting kids off to school, commuting to work, squeezing in a workout, and, of course, watching shows like Mountain Men on INSP, among other activities. For Mountain Men stars, Eustace Conway, Tom Oar, Marty Meierotto and Rich Lewis, going to work takes on a completely different meaning! So, we thought it would be fun to see how everyday life translates to life off the grid—in some amusing comparisons.

Hellooooooooo! Can you hear me now?

When you will do anything to get a better signal.

 

They’re never here when you need them!

When the bus or train is late and you have to walk home

 

Everybody’s got a side hustle…

Moonlighting the Mountain Men way…

 

It’s all about the ambiance…

Trying to read the menu in a dark restaurant

 

Why are they always off duty? 

Hailing a cab in the mountains 

 

Will you go already!?

City folk walk their dogs; mountain men walk their horses

 

Gotta get those 10,000 steps a day!

City folk log a few miles for exercise; mountain men move logs

 

Told you we should have left earlier!

 Mountain men freeway

 

Take a left! Slow down! Watch this!

When your friend is literally a backseat driver

 

In my opinion…

When tweeting at someone meant something completely different than it does today

 

I’m getting there…

Remember when your grandparents said they had to walk to school 10 miles in the snow? 

 

ZZZZZZZzzzzzz…

When you ask Dad if he’s sleeping, and he says “No, I am just resting my eyes”

 

Carrots for lunch again? Really?

 When your coworker chews too loud

 

You can have it all!

Lake or Mountains? 

 

Pack power!

When mom says dinner is ready

 

Look! Up in the sky! It’s a…Huh?

Skyscraper—mountain style 

 

Your tour guide today will be…

“To your right you’ll see some grass, and to the left, more grass” 

 

Ah…air conditioning! 

How we stay cool in the summer

 

Can I come out now?

When the game of hide and seek is over, but nobody tells you 

 

Date night!

“Don’t worry, darling…dinner is on me tonight”

 

What you lookin’ at?

First day back to work after quarantine 

 

Quaint outdoor café…

“Are you sure you ordered a Grande Iced Caramel Macchiato?”

 

Off into the wild blue yonder!

 When your flight gets canceled, and you fly yourself

 

What? No!

When you find out your daily lifestyle is actually called, “quarantine”

 

Smoooooth!

I don’t always moisturize, but when I do it’s with ice
