Elementary goings-on along the Klondike as young Steve Blaine follows his hunch and finds gold in the upper country. But the enmity of a cheechako, Sam Buckley, and the avarice of a Dawson saloonkeeper force him to try to prove his innocence in a robbery and assault charge and he sees justice done at Halfaday Creek with Corporal Downey and Black John as witnesses. Old familiar territory for Hendryx' followers.
