Yes, there’s a good chance the ‘stuff’ in the bottle is whiskey. But then again, when you are digging in the sands of Nome during the Alaska Gold Rush, you needed that ‘stuff.’ A lot of the gold in Nome was on the beach. You could not stake a claim because it was federal property so it was ‘finders keepers.’ When the tide was low. 12 hours a day. Note the boats in the background. And, yes, Nome was an equal opportunity strike. No one cared who you were; they just cared for what they could pull out of the sand – 12 hours a day, from June 15th to September 10th. After September 15th the ocean was covered with 15 feet of ice from Nome to Siberia.
