    This show is over the top. The entire town is based on tourism. It’s in the largest National park in the US

    Grew up in AK. Made the trip to Chitna / McCarthy multiple times for
    the Copper R Salmon runs (dip netting). Carried out Kings & Silvers
    in backpacks! (My brother fell over and got pinned the by weight of
    his salmon pack.)
    In the 70s and 80s, the Kuskulana bridge had no guardrails - ouch!
    On one trip, our car broke down halfway between Chitna & McCarthy.
    Yeah, we survived with make-shift camping and much hiking. A
    beautifully wondrous place to be stranded.
    At times, a road went all the way into McCarthy. Other times, there was
    no road: you crossed the Kennecott R via cable car. July 4
    celebrations were crazy. Hardy old-timers spun tales that made your
    blood run cold. Truly wild country. Surrounded by mountains, glaciers,
    roaring rivers, and abundant wildlife, even the air smelled WILD.
    In March of '83, a serial killer terrorized McCarthy. Six people
    killed. Roads snowed in and no phones. Sad.
    Exploring the Kennecott mine was magical - before it became a National
    Landmark. Still great, but a little touristy. Got to hand it to those
    early copper miners - they were freakin' tough.
    ** Thanks for bringing back Great memories. **

      As an Alaskan, this was beautifully said!

    As someone who has lived in McCarthy for a summer it is hilarious how dramatized this show is. Niel is extremely civil. I wonder how much they paid him to act like that

      Well good to hear it's all an act. Can't stand his character on the show. Him and his mine project is stupid.

      He seems like a weasely douche who needs to disappear into an old mineshaft, never to be found again.

    Their children will have nothing for them in the future, if they don't modernice or create opportunities for the young ones they will leave, the adults expect them to live like they never did.

    Why is the town putting up w this. There’s plenty of land out there to make things disappear, if u feel me.

      While I know plenty of drama queens like that in RL? In this it seems really obviously staged :P. But then I only saw it on a youtube spiral of "oooh what's this" so what do I know :P.

    So the whole show is based on a bunch of people making drama so they can be famous on TV, as per usual on reality TV. Can't blame em, as long as the public pays for the drama they keep making this stuff :P .
