North American Treasure Hunter is scheduled to debut in early 2009

We still need to get a couple more sponsors in place, I never imagined each show would cost this much to produce, but I am my own toughest critic.

On our trek this summer we've encountered forest fires, flash floods, 70 mph winds, and some of the nicest people this great country has. We have had to skip some locations due to these conditions, but we'll make them up when conditions permit. 

Here is a run down of the areas we'll visit in our first season.

As soon as the network gives me the play order, I'll revise this site.
