Now THIS is going to be up my alley! Thank you! Might come back for an update!
In days gone by, I would've been begging to go on this trip. Now I'm quite content to watch it.
Oohh I loved this first episode!
Even with modern equipment I would be dead in a week.
😅 extremely relatable
You’d be fine
At least that would good for the others.....fresh meat.
This is great!
Charlie Chaplin- Gold Rush. One of my favourite movies.
I saw it as a child and remembered his going snowshoeing. 30 years later I got to do it in Colorado
Not in a steamer but by mini van 🤣
Amazing, things we do for fortune
I love these documentaries they do
One thing......they have the knowledge that help is just round the corner/ sattalite phonecall away.
These folks ever hear of fishing?
Like the California gold rush, but colder.
Link to part 2?
Oh Great... Now I haftà add this to my bucket list 🤣
Packers? They should have flown in Sherpa.

Yep!! Nor rich!
There is additional food around if people did some research before they began. Berries, herbs, small animals, and even some of the trees are edible.
High stakes LARPing
Why no horses?
The climb? It was mer impossible to have horses. You also have to feed, shelter and keep them out of harms way.
I want to see where the gold went after all these years.
What year is this from lol
No thanks. 3 day canoe trip with portages was enough for me. And Ive refuse to sleep in a tent without an air mattress ever since.
I don't think they drove cars in 1897!
There were a few, for the very rich and avant-garde
4 men and 1 woman . . . Sounds about right.
Life was good then. The people had all the gold they could eat and all the whiskey they could drink. What more could they ask?
Modern medicine.
@@jackrigdon6270 Nah. Everything took a backseat to the search for gold.
@@Snuffy03 I am a railroad/mining historian by trade. The ways to die were horrible and numerous
