King Cove, Alaska, a remote town populated by about 250 families are
campaigning for something they've wanted for years in their small town: a road. A tight-knit village of native fishermen and cannery workers, King Cove has been campaigning for the road with single-minded intensity since the mid-1980's. The National Audobon Society has denounced the village's "golden gravel road" as a wasteful boondogle and an unacceptable incursion into a designated wilderness.
