In early autumn 1499 a group led by Professor Smith, joined by Clark E. Prear and others, prepares for a Klondike expedition. The scene unfolds as Smith proposes sharing a current article from today's paper to discuss its implications for their projected spring 1900 journey.
A dialogue outlines choosing Arizona over the Klondike to test a machine while seeking rich mineral claims. The group weighs risks from harsh environments and Indian tribes, debating dangers and feasibility, with a plan to camp out in spring.
A new patented instrument claims to reveal metals and a coin buried twenty feet deep by using an X ray like principle. Professor Smith and companions join a prospecting journey through Arizona and New Mexico, discovering a cavern with four preserved bodies and a spring of rejuvenating water, prompting plans to seal the cavern to protect this discovery.
The streamers camped by a stream found placer diggings yielding about four dollars per day per man. After several days of labor the party moved farther into the mountains hoping to locate a richer field.
The party visits Wahkena and Karina at their ruined cliffside home and weighs their 150 year old ages. They infer ancient forest changes and horses introduced here. The group moves to mine gold along a southeast stream, builds a winter camp, and begins settling with Zoheka and his wife while advancing on their language learning and daily mining output.
