Pati Jinich Explores Panamericana

Pati Jinich travels from the northernmost city in the United States, Utqiagvik, to the remote island community of Halibut Cove in southern Alaska - discovering that subsistence living transcends all differences. She learns that living in this frontier region instills Alaskans of all backgrounds with a deep connection to the ebbs and flows of their natural environment.

Pati Jinich explores the sister cities of Alaska’s capital, Juneau, and the capital of Canada’s Yukon Territory, Whitehorse. In these remote cities, she finds a pioneering culture of artistry and entrepreneurship and small, tight-knit communities produce big characters forging unique lives adjacent to the unforgiving wilderness.
