Drive Thru Towns — Season 2 Trailer: Alaska

Welcome to Drive Thru Towns.

Season 2 is here — and we're heading somewhere bigger, wilder, and colder than anywhere we've been before.

Alaska.

This season, we leave the moss-draped back roads of Florida behind and drive north — all the way to the edge of the continent, and sometimes beyond it. We're talking about a town the earth swallowed whole in under five minutes. A road built in eight months by soldiers whose names were literally erased from the photographs. A village everyone abandoned — and nobody can fully explain why. A bunker city carved into a mountain by a Cold War military that needed a secret. And the very top of the world, where America simply runs out of road.

Alaska has always been the place where history went to disappear. This season, we're going to find it.

This season covers:

• The earthquake ghost town of Portage — swallowed by the tides of Turnagain Arm in 1964
• Dyea — the gold rush boomtown that lost a race to its neighbor and vanished inside a single season
• Whittier — the secret WWII bunker city where most of the town still lives under one roof
• Ninilchik — a Russian colonial settlement where an Imperial-era dialect of Russian is still spoken today
• The ALCAN — the highway that connected a continent, built on a history it spent 75 years trying to erase
• Utqiagvik (Barrow) — 1,500 years of continuous habitation at the top of the world, where America ends and the dark begins
• And much more
