The only place I've lived that I truly loved and hated simultaneously. The scenery and solitude is fantastic, the weather is absolutely awful.

I feel blessed to have deep roots up in Alaska. My mother was there in the late 30’s, up in Wrangell. Her father logged, fished and worked in the gold mines up in Juneau. My wife’s father traveled the AlCan in 1947, stayed in Fairbanks, then down in Cordova till 1973. My wife and I met in Cordova in 1983 while I was commercial fishing, I still go up there every summer, it truly is a special place, the history is interesting. We have a couple of cabins in McCarthy near the abandoned Kennicot copper mine in the Wrangell St. Elias National Park.

My earliest memories as a child are from Alaska, where I lived in Fairbanks in 1959 with my parents. Views of the snowclad mountains and of the bays along the coast instilled in me a love for nature till this day. I now live in Israel.

Great movie ! Nothing like pure wilderness. That rush of a pure wind, the feel of water on your skin bathing in the river at 6 am in the morning, that feeling of walking on the edge of existence knowing that every step is up to you.....

It’s a great way to describe it. There’s a town and things go out, in Alaska, but in the lower 48, the wilderness is always surrounded by the town

They always show alaska in the summer when it's warm and light and you can do everything. Go up there in January when it's dark and cold af. 🥶

There's the lower 48, Alaska and that pacific island state! It's way different by far than where your from. So glad I got to have an extended stay there. While amazed at this place, the dry dusty desert is where MY heart lies. This documentary did a fine fine job showing the two things that stand out in Alaska. The huge space of light, geology, weather, water and the deeply powerful spirit of Alaskan's themselves. Thanks much for the posting.

wow...thank you for this.... with all the BS of city life and current events.....this brought me back to reality for 52 minutes.... thank you again!!

Wish everyone understood being with Mother Nature is where all our answers lies. The more we go away from Nature, the more we suffer.

I loved the "everything on a gigantic scale" part of being in Alaska!

WONDER-FULL!!! Thank You, ALL Adventurers!!!

Finally thank you best documentry channel for showing our crown of USA

I think the man with Libby is a relative of the kilchers from Alaska the last frontier, Nice!

This is an awesome film. I knew that Eivan was a Kilcher, as soon as I laid eyes on him. He looks so much like his cousin, Ivan.
