Why Did They Name a Town Chicken? A Drive Up Eastern Alaska

R
Aug 25, 2025

Let's explore eastern Alaska and the towns of Tok and Chicken and more! How did the town of Chicken get its name? And what's there? More than you might think! There's gold in the region and old dredges, mining cabins and more. Meet Chuck and Glen, who are rebuilding from scratch the former town of Boundary. A wildfire erupts and firefighters start arriving...and I camp within sight of the flames. There's beautiful lakes and abandoned places, boreal forest and blueberries.
