Notas del episodio

Four point two million ounces of gold. That's what came out of one narrow stretch of mountain, a hundred and thirty kilometres up a dirt road from Lillooet — enough to make it, at its peak, the richest gold mine in Canada. But it didn't start with a stampede. It started with one man, alone, mining by hand for eleven straight years. In this episode, we trace the second gold rush: from a solitary prospector's shovel to a company town with a 4,000-square-foot dance floor built in the middle of the Great Depression, through a bitter fraud lawsuit and a difficult wartime chapter, to the ghost town — and quiet modern revival — you can drive out and stand inside today.
