Hauptbeschreibung
The Klondikers was the name given to the people that heard about the gold that was to be found around what was to become, Dawson City. It was just sitting there, waiting to be picked up by anyone who could make the challenging journey to get there. This is the recreation of a journey that one farmer from the wheat growing areas of the prairies around Calgary, may have experienced to get to the gold! His journey would involve crossing the Rockies to the western seaboard, travelling up the coast and making landfall. Then the intrepid potential gold panner had to cross the Rockies on foot and brave blizzards and freezing cold. When the weather and the ice had melted, he then had to paddle his way down 800kms of river to the goldfields. Once he arrived that was the least of his problems.
