VBS TV has a seven-episode documentary available for viewing at its website on Heimo Korth and his family who ventured deep into the Alaskan frontier -- now known as the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge -- in order to build a life. The above video is the full length of the first episode. From the VBS website:
Raised in suburban Wisconsin, Heimo set off in his teens to the Alaskan Bush to pursue the Davy Crockett lifestyle in more or less the only place it was still possible. Amid numerous setbacks and misadventures, Heimo gradually learned how to master his terrain, provide for his Eskimo wife, and rear children in one of the most inhospitable environments in North America.
