First, Kirsten battles death-defying cliffs, explosives and a locked forest service gate in search of the rare combination of Pyrite and Quartz Crystals. Pyrite is often called "Fool's Gold," but there is no fooling around during this high adventure for our treasure hunter. Then Kirsten turns back the hands of time - mining for real California gold like the 1849ers. She ultimately uses modern tools as well - diving into the freezing waters of the Mokelume River to get those shiny, valuable nuggets.
