Our Man In Alaska Part 1
b'Our Man In Alaska: Episode One:\\xa0 Living in a postcard and A typical day at -65. Some people think they know what cold is, but unless you\\u2019ve been to the arctic you have no idea. Learn just what it\\u2019s like to experience deep cold, up close and personal. Many people fantasize about what life would be like way up in the forests and mountains and tundra of the Arctic wilderness. But few will ever actually convince themselves to give it a try. If you have ever wondered what it takes to make it in the Greatland take a listen to these short episodes and you will start to get a picture of it. Basil Sands was born right in the middle of the Alaskan Frontier on a hot summer day in 1968 and now he\\u2019s here to tell you all about it. Alaska that is, not his birth\\u2026his mother was rather adamant about keeping that bit private. Over the course of these episodes you will learn about the real life and the people of Alaska. Some of the stories are his own experiences. Some as told by friends and family. And some from the early days as told by his pioneer Grandfather who was one of the first civilians to drive up the Alaska/Canada highway in 1946. Most all of the stories are mostly all true, although some names have been changed so Basil doesn\\u2019t get into any trouble, since most of his neighbors are very well armed.
