For much of his life, Otis Hahn dreamed of mining for gold in Alaska. After he turned fifty, he handed his Minnesota farm over to one of his sons and headed north. Mining in Alaska's remote and primitive back country became the challenge of a lifetime. On Bear Creek, Otis and his wife Audrey and their mining crew faced flash floods, marauding bears, frightening medical emergencies, unreliable radio communication, uncertain transportation by bush plane and above all, backbreaking work from dusk to dawn in the land of the midnight sun. Otis Hahn's absorbing story, told straight from the heart with honesty and humor, reveals how a man with the courage to follow his dream found both gold and unexpected adventure and adversity in interior Alaska, while learning that human nature can be the most unpredictable force of all.
