Which 'Mountain Men' Cast Members Have Sadly Passed Away?

I’ve been a long-time fan of Mountain Men, and over the years, the show has become more than just a survival reality series for me — it’s a glimpse into real-life wilderness adventures.

Sadly, some cast members of Mountain Men are no longer with us, leaving a mark on fans like me. From heartwarming friendships to incredible survival skills, these individuals shaped the series in ways that go beyond the screen.

I want to honor them and share their stories, so if you’ve ever watched Mountain Men, this is a chance to remember the people who made it unforgettable.

Preston Roberts — A Mountain Men Legend

Preston Roberts was a beloved part of Mountain Men, known for his deep friendship with Eustace Conway and his practical survival skills. Watching him on the show, I felt inspired by his courage and dedication to wilderness living.

Preston passed away from complications related to an inoperable liver tumor, and losing him left a void in the Mountain Men community. His legacy lives on in every episode he appeared in, and for me, he represents the heart and humanity of the series.

Jason Hawk — Remembering a Mountain Men Star

Jason Hawk, another notable cast member of Mountain Men, was a blacksmith and skilled survivalist. I always admired his craftsmanship and how he shared his knowledge on-screen, making viewers like me feel part of the adventure.

Sadly, Jason passed away in April 2025 due to cancer. His episodes remain some of the most memorable moments of Mountain Men, and his contributions to the series’ legacy cannot be overstated.

Even though Preston Roberts and Jason Hawk are no longer with us, Mountain Men continues to showcase incredible survival stories and cast members who embody resilience, adventure, and the spirit of the wilderness.

Their influence on the series — and on fans like me — ensures that Mountain Men remains a remarkable reality show for years to come.
