Season 2
Episodes
Old Dog, New Tricks
Season 2 begins with Bryan Sr. bringing an old crane dubbed the "rust bucket" out of retirement in order to finish a remote fishing cabin. Elsewhere, Beat juggles two huge projects; and Peter works in secret on something for the Calgary Stampede Parade.
Trial By Fire
In foggy Newfoundland, Peter builds a duck-hunting cabin and gets initiated into island culture. Meanwhile, Bryan Jr. renovates the patio at the local pub — wrangling oversized logs and the client's oversized personality. At the yard, Joel and Nellie feel the heat, as local firefighters teach them how to protect their multimillion-dollar log pile.
A Big Deal
Joel pulls out all the stops, hoping his contract for four cabins in Michigan will land Pioneer an order for sixteen more. Meantime, Andre's simple kitchen reno turns into a bigger deal than expected. And Beat marks an anniversary for Peter with the ultimate prank gift — a redneck jungle gym.
High Rollers
Just hours from Manhattan, Beat creates a country retreat for a demanding French financier, while Joel's Australian client makes a last minute request for a three-car garage. In the meantime, Peter conspires to create an oversize surprise for Andre 50th birthday.
Active Duty
In California, Joel is under the gun, with a job that's behind schedule before it even begins. Meanwhile, Beat marshals the troops to finish a mega project on the verge of shipping out. And Andre fulfills a dream when he gets recruited for a special mission with the Armed Forces.
Make a Mark
Bryan Jr. makes a mark in the self-proclaimed log home capital of the world. Back at the yard, Andre tries to control Peter when his pent-up creativity goes in overdrive. And the rivalry of three young brothers is ratcheted up, when Beat engineers a log yard challenge.
Pig in Mud
In the Prairies, Peter gets stuck in the mud, trying to make a client's dreams come true. Meantime, Beat helps Sam with his biggest build ever, but a reckless rookie crane op threatens to bring the whole project down. And Joel goes whole hog to build a pigpen for some very demanding clients — his kids.
Cold War
In Kansas, tensions run high when Andre muscles in on Sam's big build. And back at the log yard, winter gales put a chill on Peter's enormous project for a Russian client. And Bryan Jr. hosts an ice-cutting party on frozen Lake Nimpo, complete with an ice bar and hot tub.
Out on a Limb
In Northern BC, a challenging modern log home has Beat and his crew risking life and limb. Meantime, Joel and Bryan Sr. take a chance on hiring an eccentric perfectionist to carve a life-size statue on a tight deadline. And Peter keeps a promise to help Martin build a house in his own unique "Peter-style."
The Getaway
As winter approaches, the rush to build two summer getaway homes is on. Peter leads his team in Alberta while Bryan Jr. and his guys head north to Alaska. Meantime, weekend warriors Beat and Joel build a daredevil mountain bike jump — but will they dare to ride it?
Planes, Cranes and Automobiles
Beat takes on his biggest build this season, a 15,000 square foot mansion with logs so massive they tax the crane and crew to the limits. In Oregon, Joel and Bryan Sr. fly high, setting up a gazebo for an air and automotive museum, while Peter and Nellie put the pedal to the rusty metal, in a local Crash to Pass car race.
Great Expectations
In upstate New York, Beat builds three grandiose gazebos for two brothers with neighbouring properties. Back home, Bryan Jr. asks his son Little Man to take charge of his first build ever. And Joel and Shawn scramble to create a grand prize for their son's hockey raffle — under the watchful eye of a tougher-than-nails coach.
Good as New
On a two-man build in Alberta, Joel and his right-hand man Shawn are challenged by broken logs and stubborn headers. Meantime, family and friends pitch in to help Beat recycle Bryan Sr.'s old garage into a new lakeside cabin, and Peter builds a Pioneer style baby gift for Nellie.
Barn Burner
After Beat and Sam build a beautiful home in Alberta, the clients egg them on to a paint ball battle on their acreage. Meantime, Peter rebuilds a massive barn for an old friend, but first he gets to demolish it! And Joel is given a commission to build his wife a bed. If he doesn't get it right, he'll be on the couch for sure!

Mysteries of the Abandoned
Some of the world's most incredible engineering projects now lie in ruins. These deserted places are home to extraordinary mysteries and untold secrets, and we revisit them to understand how they were built, and why they were abandoned.
They were once some of the most advanced structures and facilities on the planet, standing at the cutting-edge of design and construction. Today they are abandoned, dangerous, some of them even deadly. From uninhabited cities to empty factories, these long-forgotten engineering marvels are scattered around the globe. Science Channel uncovers why some of the world's most advanced architectural achievements were eventually left behind in the all-new series Mysteries of the Abandoned.
Each of the six, hour-long episodes of Mysteries of the Abandoned features stories behind engineering wonders, why they were built, and the reasons they were eventually left to crumble. Each story recalls the people who originally designed the structure, their historical significance, and why they were ultimately no longer of use. The premiere episode explores California's Goat Canyon Trestle railway, known as the 'Impossible Railroad,' that required the biggest wooden trestle bridge in the world; Ukraine's Duga, the notorious anti-ballistic missile radar, known as the 'Russian Woodpecker,' that still stands in within the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone; and the Grand Goulets Road in the French Alps, an astonishingly narrow and perilous mountain passageway.
