Hunter
“Hunter Stewart? Sure I remember you! I didn’t know you folks were
interested in getting into the TV biz. I would’ve hit you up ages ago as a
location scout. We need those folks for every reality show we make.”
Here’s something most people don’t understand about Alaska.
It’s small.
Really small.
Sure, it’s the largest state in the United States by landmass, but we’re
the smallest when it comes to population. That’s right. Number one in size.
(Heh heh.) Number fifty in inhabitants. That means that the degrees of
separation between me and someone else who grew up here can be, and
often are, pretty tight.
Right now, I’m talking to my dental hygienist’s nephew, Nick, who
works for KYES, the UPN affiliate in Ketchikan, Alaska. He never lived in
Skagway, but he spent a few summers up here with his aunt and uncle, and
we met through his cousin, who was one of my classmates. He remembered
my family as soon as I mentioned my name and where I was from.
“This is a little new for me,” I tell him. “Aside from hosting guests at
our campground in Dyea, we mostly do tours and transfers out of Skagway.
But when I heard that The Astonishing Race was doing an Alaska-only
season, I thought I’d reach out and see if there was any way we could work
together.”
“I’m glad you did,” he says, shuffling around some papers in the
background. “I need someone, and fast. We’ve already got a Locations
Manager and one Locations Assistant, but we’re still missing one more
Locations Assistant. You interested?”
To be honest, I didn’t expect it to be this easy.
I haven’t talked to my family about working with The Astonishing
Race this summer, and even with McKenna taking on more responsibility
this season, there’s a good probability I’ll still be needed in Skagway. But I
like the idea of bringing in a new income stream…in addition to my other,
more personal, reasons.
“Tell me a little more about the job.”
“Sure. The show’s route is south to north, split into three segments.
First part is the panhandle. They start in Ketchikan. We ferry them to Sitka,
Juneau, Skagway, and Whittier. Second leg is Whittier to Anchorage, to
Talkeetna, and finally to Fairbanks.”
“By car?”
“Nope. Buses, vans and hired drivers.”
“Third leg?”
“We fly ’em from Fairbanks to Nome, and then from Nome to
Utqiaġvik.”
“I have to be frank, Nick, I haven’t traveled a whole lot up north.
Never even been to Utqiaġvik.”
“You still know a hundred percent more about that area than our
contestants do.”
That’s probably true.
Nick continues. “You’ve seen the show, right? They do two challenges
a day—one general challenge and one detour—then they race to the pit
stop, and they’ve got about twelve hours to eat, shower, sleep, etc.” He
pauses for a second. “Any questions so far?”
“Not really. Seems straightforward. Tell me about the job.”
“Right. So our Locations Manager for this show is Rick Jones, son of
Landry Jones. You know Landry?”
“Not personally,” I say, “but I think my dad does. His company is way
bigger than ours.”
