The blog now shows a counter (bottom of righthand column). There were more than 10,000 page views since the blog was born in May, 2009. Of those more than 6,000 were viewed in Canada followed by viewers in Germany (abt. 900), the US (abt,. 800), the Netherlands (abt. 700). There were also visitors from Australia, Russia, Belgium, the UK, South Korea and Switserland. I know, other Web sites get that traffic in a day or less, but still...it's nice to know.
Nature does not need a ghost to guard a mine.
In 1891,in New Westminster BC, an elderly Native man was hanged for murder. Today, legends of epic proportions link him with rich gold findings in the mountains around Pitt Lake and multiple killings. What do we really know about this man and where did the legends come from?
Award Winning Web site
The Slumach site received the Web site Award for 2008 from the British Columbia Historical Federation and David Mattison
Memorable quotations
A gold mine is a hole in the ground with a liar on top.
Gold makes a fool of us all the time. Nature does not need a ghost to guard a mine.
Gold is where you find it.
