A&E has ordered a new season of Alaska State Troopers, bringing the veteran docuseries back to television for the first time in over a decade. The series originally debuted in 2009, running for eight seasons on National Geographic before being cancelled in 2015.

Set in America's largest and wildest state, the show follows some of the 400 Alaska State Troopers who are responsible for patrolling hundreds of miles in Fairbanks and the Mat-Su Valley, serving over 230 remote villages only reachable by boat or plane. From the endless light of summer to the deep freeze of winter, episodes capture these men and women as they patrol the vast frontier by land, sea, and air. Alaska is the final stop for fugitives on the run, where danger is vast, distances are brutal, and backup can be hours away. From multi-agency criminal takedowns to life-saving search and rescue missions, the series showcases a range of calls Alaska State Troopers face that are as immense and unpredictable as the state itself.

Season 9 of Alaska State Troopers premieres Wednesday, January 7th on A&E.
