“you can get stuck in these mountains” is an understatement. you can get SWALLOWED by them. even the actual lake is so unpredictable, it’s insanely hard to canoe on at certain times of day because the wind picks up with absolutely no warning. even as someone who’s conscious of this and super safe in the outdoors, that lake and the mountains surrounding it have shown me that they could kill me over and over again.

What a great video! The mountains of B.C. seem so endless to me. I was impressed with the mountains of Montana, they seemed endless (to this Connecticut citizen). These were topped off by the mountains of Glacier National Park, where the mountains are extra-dramatic compared to the rest of the American Rockies. Yet this is NOTHING compared to the vastness and unspoiled beauty of the mountains in B.C.

Ya Alaska and Canada has some beautiful mountains I saw on a cruise. Be fun to drive to Alaska on the road and tour canada. The southwest is cool to. The mountains aren’t near as grand but in Colorado you can be on a mountain and look and see hundreds of miles away to like central Utah or visa versus. The grand Tetons are probably some of the most dramatic mountains in the lower 48 for how quick they rise up. Travel is great!

My uncles had a cabin in the north country of Minnesota and had stories also. While I was spending time hunting and fishing, we would talk with locals who had tales of pioneers. People who walk in the woods and explore nature, always seem to know a great deal about the great creator. Amen

Then the government continues to close four wheeler roads and shutting down public land. Or they’ll saw an area is a recreational area. It’s basically closed down just with one main road remaining open. The government screws over a lot of disabled people from enjoying public lands.

Great video. I personally do believe in the lost gold although i don't think it would be as high as the glacier itself as way back then the glacier was way lower down and it would take longer to get to than 3 days especially in snow. If it is as high as the glacier was; it's possibly at the end of it at that time as in the letter it states....."the gold is located where the water just ends" Maybe meaning the water disappears into the glacier ?

GOSH! don't'cha just love a good ghost/gold story? this one is great! wild country, lonely valleys and rivers, big ice flows that kill everyone who walks on them! The lure of gold is a sickness that when it get's into your blood never leaves you. the flash in your pan of real gold. it doesn't matter how big, or how small that flash is. it's REAL gold and no one in the history of man has ever laid eyes on it until you did! that sets the hook that will NEVER leave you. the draw of the gold calls you for the rest of your life. It calls you unril you can't resist it anymore and you find you HAVE to go look for it whether it is only a day trip. a weekend or an entire summer, you WILL go for how ever long you can stretch it out to, and the time is NEVER enough. It has caused men to leave families, for only a week mind you, or two weeks, but then they find the life doesn't ley them go back to what once was and they end up spending their whole life chasing that elusive yellow metal. There are a lot of guys, and yes also women who never get rid of what they find, they can't bear even the thought of selling so much as a penny weight of it, that is unless it's for more gold finding equipment but even then it makes their backside clench like superman's. Well, maybe i'll be lucky this next summer and be able to go panning for the entire summer at a few places i know of. there are a few spots now, because of the drought that are closer to get to that have never or at least not for the last hundred years or so been panned or dredged or even snorkled. I think i'm going to hit a few of these and see what in the bottom of my pan by nightfall. To all you gold fever victims like me, happy hunting. May your pan never be empty and your bean pot always be full and hot. \/ peace

Having grown up in the Fraser Valley I'm always interested in the history from generations ago. A few problems with this video though, where it shows Vancouver's location is actually Richmond, Vancouver is about 10 - 15 miles north and 60 miles north of Vancouver puts you west of Whistler ski resort. The start of Pitt Lake is about 23 miles east of Vancouver. Pitt Lake is 20 feet above sea level, it gets about the same weather as Vancouver, maybe a little wetter. There are some small glaciers in the upper reaches of the Pitt River, closer to Whistler but Pitt Lake is not at the foot of any, that's why they had to use a helicopter to find them a long ways from Pitt Lake. They also went up this valley the hard way, there are roads, small settlements in this valley and farther up.... logging roads and clearcuts from logging. If your going to do a video like this, get the geography and directions right otherwise it calls into questions the accuracy of the rest of the video.

New Westminster is a historically important city in the Lower Mainland region of British Columbia, Canada, and is a member municipality of the Greater Vancouver Regional District. It was founded by Major-General Richard Moody as the capital of the new-born Colony of British Columbia in 1858, and continued in that role until the Mainland and Island Colonies were merged in 1866, and was the Mainland's largest city from that year until it was passed in population by Vancouver during the first decade of the 20th Century.

One OTHER theory not mentioned is that a number of Native tribes would ambush gold miners coming back from up country, the Yukon, northern BC, and even Alaska. The Kootenai were famous for "ventilating" Americans trying to get to the headwaters of the Columbia. The "First Nations" couldn't spend the gold without suspicions being raised, so I would put my money on a stash. If we could find a gold sample the Native spent you could provenance it, and it might go back to Alaska. That area had some silver (the Spanish mined it by going up into the lakes via the "poulder" off the Fraser River before man changed to landscape. But gold? No.

+Adam Henkel The original video was part of a series produced for the Discovery Channel in cooperation with the tourism offices of the various countries featured in the series. The collaborative efforts were intended generate profits from the sales of the videos and to stimulate tourism to the places featured - more specifically treasure hunter dollars. Of course, in doing such they invariably leave out many important facts that don't serve those goals. Whenever treasure hunting is the focus, the fact that Slumach was a serial murderer is usually conveniently left out of story. When that fact is included, the question of where Slumach's gold came from seems far less of a mystery.

My guess is there is no mine. If no one knew about gold in these parts back then, the gold in the river would be rich, much like it was during the California gold rush and more recently discovered in the Bering Sea. Typically in a river that is fed by a glacier, it is the glacier that grinds the rock and releases the gold out of it. I didn't once see anyone with a gold pan in the river, which is the first place I would look, there's could still be a lot of gold in there.

I would imagine that the Location has been Identified . If so . It is within National or Provincial Park Boundries . He did not Register . We Have It BC . In the Perfect Museum . Where it was Formed . One Day We may be able to show it off .

New Westminster has NOT been "swallowed up by Vancouver". It is an entirely different city, 45 minutes outside of Vancouver.

John Schnabel we miss you rest in peace my friend not in pieces God be with you always Parker Schnabel has earned himself a new name mr. Gold at least he's bringing in the gold on the series there's one of the fellow that's trying to earn the name Mr Gold and surely hasn't followed through properly Parker Schnabel has taken the name Mr Gold away from mr. Golden self the reason is Parker keeps getting more gold than the other fellow
