Snowflake Mountain: release date, plot, contestants, trailer and everything we know (2024)

Snowflake Mountain is a new Netflix reality series that puts 10 "kidults" to the test at a wilderness and survival retreat where they must go without their usual luxuries.

With no Wi-Fi, running water, or modern comforts in sight, they'll be put through their paces under the watchful eyes of ex-military leaders Joel Graves and Matt Tate, who will help guide them to success.

The contestants are forced to connect with nature and go head-to-head with a number of challenging activities, including swimming in a freezing lake to get food from a raft.

Whichever youngster manages to succeed in this rude awakening to adulthood will be crowned the ultimate Wilderness Warrior and receive a whopping $50,000 cash prize.

Will the 'kidults' manage to reach their full potential and brave the wild alone without the help of their parents?
