Description

John Hielscher was a young man when he joined the Klondike Gold Rush in 1898. Decades later, he put pen to paper and recorded his memories of that time in a series of manuscripts. Since 2008, those manuscripts have been the property of Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park. Join one of our rangers on Sunday, June 9th at 1:00 PM to learn more about Hielscher, and hear his adventures told in his own words.
