    Nancy and Tara are in Alaska this week, so we're dusting off this story from the vault that took place on the border of America's largest national park, Wrangell St Elias, in Alaska.

    A hippie turned religious fundamentalist moves his family of 15 children to Alaska and creates what he calls "Hillbilly Heaven." He picks a fight with the National Park Service and all of his abuses on his family get exposed.
