Product Description
Gold River Canyon’s Dead is a fictional adventure based upon an actual newspaper story that appeared in the San Diego Union in the late 1960s. While the real event involved an accidental discovery made by some hunters in the upper elevations of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, the story of Gold River Canyon is set in the Flat Tops Wilderness Area of the Rockies.

As the story unfolds, two middle-aged men are linked together in search of a long-lost mining town they believe to be located in the western Rockies. They are joined by a widowed businesswoman who agrees to finance the expedition as long as she is included.

After months of careful planning and cold weather training, the trio take to the trail leading west out of Yampa, Colorado, for what will become a two-year mission of three-dimensional proportions…discovery, danger and death.
