Plot Synopsis

EDGE OF ALASKA: LEGENDS OF THE NORTH is a series of enhanced episodes of EDGE OF ALASKA, a one-hour reality series that follows the residents of McCarthy, Alaska, which is an isolated town surrounded by extreme wilderness and a refuge for people who don't want to be found. While some believe in continuing the town's frontier way of life, others feel the future of McCarthy depends on dragging itself into the modern age. Built during the Gold Rush in 1900, McCarthy was once a vibrant and flourishing city. Today, with over 100 miles between the residents and the nearest law enforcement, only 42 people still brave the extreme conditions to live in this secluded. Each of the roughly four dozen residents of McCarthy is living this dangerous wilderness life for their own, very different, reasons.
