Originally built during the Gold Rush in 1900, McCarthy was a vibrant city, but now only 42 people brave the extreme conditions to live in this secluded Old West town. It is home to bear hunters, gold miners, gun smiths, and backwoods survivalists - people willing to risk their lives for true freedom.
The residents of McCarthy have diverse reasons for living this dangerous wilderness life. Neil Darish dreams of restoring the town to its former glory, investing in properties to bring McCarthy into the 21st century. On the other hand, long-standing resident Jeremy Keller came to McCarthy to escape modern society and will fight to protect the old way at any cost.
Each resident of McCarthy is trying to run away from something, making them mavericks and trailblazers. This is the story of America's last true frontier town, on the Edge of Alaska. Will tradition prevail, or will it be transformed?
