Building Alaska

Three men set out to each build a cabin in remote areas of the Alaskan frontier. They must complete them before winter sets in.(S02,E01)

As the summer season starts to thaw out, the builders get underway. Their pre-planning doesn't go as they hoped but a little ingenuity goes a long way.(S02,E02)

The three builders each face their own problems, from bad weather to fishing season's impact on labour. And, there's an epic 500-mile trek to Chicken for supplies.(S02,E03)

Tragedy strikes one of the builders. With work suspended, a decision must be made to continue or not. Plus, Jim and his family try to salvage their cabin in Chicken.(S02,E04)

Winter is fast approaching. As all three of the builders find themselves with less help to finish the massive tasks, tempers flare at one camp.(S02,E06)

After the tragic loss of his righthand man, Chuck returns to finish the job they started as the builders find themselves defeated by elements they can't control.(S02,E05)

With winter looming, the builders learn the smallest mistakes have big consequences. As the days get shorter and colder, they race to get their homes sealed in.(S02,E07)

Winter arrives and the race is over, as each builder reflects on the year as they pack up and head home for the season. How did they cope with Alaska's hostile nature?(S02,E08)
