The reason why the streams can be there and gone the next year is because they are Glacier streams (glacier headwaters) made by when snow melts and ice melts which exposes the bedrock up high near glaciers BUT also creates a seasonal creek that will vanish when winter comes around again. People have overlooked seasons. Jackson went in July and found this creek. Everybody else might go tomorrow and see absolutely nothing. Waterfalls are this way also in canyons that flood in winter or monsoon season. They disappear.

@@wingsovercanada I just found this to be a natural sleuth made by nature. So the PIT is actually a quarry also when the glacier melts etc. when it is empty the bedrock is BARE (exposed) with cracks in the ground filled with gold, Even a bench Slumach slept on with moss covered was in this pit and is moss covered and “bare” because it is normally submerged under water. Sleuth has formed naturally in this pit

In Billy Proctors book Full moon, Flood tide he describes a lost gold mine in knights inlet. Story has some similarities to this. His father grub staked a First Nations man who would disappear during the summer and come back in the winter with enough gold for him to spend lavishly. His father and others tried follow him but always lost him. Then one winter he never came back. Mr Proctor now in his 80s and told me he found a small camp past Glendale cove he thought may have been his camp but cant remember the exact spot. I think his father may have told him about Slumach and he somehow subconsciously created this story.

Actually it didn’t take him three days it says right here in own words. So your book is not correct nor is your location. It’s a glacier gold deposit in between three peaks. He wasn’t feeling well so it took him THREE days and normally only takes TWO. “After three days of extreme hard traveling it would not be over 2 days of good going but the way was rough and I was not feeling well.” - Jackson
@polymathperspective
@polymathperspective 3 жыл бұрын
The importance of going to the headwaters is because they are glacier headwaters made by when snow melts ONLY. Jackson went in July and knew timing. He then takes the mouth all the way up to the SOURCE where gold is actually found in bedrock. In a canyon that looks like a dimple and has no exit. Resting in between three peaks. - I’m 100% sure your book is about made up connections you created in your own head, believed your own biases and still have no gold.

Above the falls there are a series of lakes known as Link Lakes. The fishing there was just a good as in the ocean. There were 2 parts. The main town and a couple of miles west was Martin Valley the homes there were privately owned.

@@wingsovercanada indeed he was.

Considering what is known about the man, it wouldn't come as much of a surprise to learn "Old Slumach's Mine" was never a geographic location, but rather a murderous method of taking gold from it's rightful owners.

Walter Jackson who is known to be the last one to fine slow Max mine stated that it took him three days journey to get out he was picked up near the islands on Pitt Lake which to me is near Williams Landing so if you go from Williams Landing and walk to the head of pit lake how many days do you think it will take you ? Why keep heading even further North? Another thing, no native would leave three horses in a grizzly infested area. But it’s ok you can go your way and I’ll keep this place to myself.
