Program 2: America's Last Frontier: Alaska - Fifty-one million acres of Alaska's national parks preserve much of the history of our last frontier. Following caribou across the Bering Land Bridge, Ancient Siberians once migrated here. Relive the colorful stories of Russian trappers, gold seekers, and "The Forgotten War" and learn how William Seward purchased Alaska from Old Russia. From its fascinating past to its bustling present, Alaska continues to be an epic gateway. Program 3: Wild Alaska - Challenged to exist through nature's four seasons, Alaska is a land where wildlife is at its most spectacular. Witness the many animals that have either vanished from the rest of the U.S. or are in serious decline. Here roam wolves, brown bears, grizzly bears, and near the Artic, approximately 3,000 polar bears. Observe the rare musk ox - a Great Ice Age survivor, as well as caribou, curly-haired Dall sheep, and Alaskan moose as they reside among Alaska's great landscape. Run Time - 3 Hours.
