The Principal Cinematographer was Daniel J. Lyons of Vermont Films.

Format

Each episode featured several related occupations in which Geo Beach joins the workers for a hands-on approach to the unique dangers of performing their job in Alaska, in a manner somewhat similar to the Discovery Channel program Dirty Jobs. The program switched back and forth between these jobs throughout each episode. Beach frequently commented on just how difficult or different life in Alaska can be, not only in the jobs themselves but also in the effort it takes just to get to where he or the fruits of his labor need to go.

DVD releases

The one season of the program, featuring all 13 episodes, became available on DVD on September 30, 2008.
