Mike Halliday is a rugged outdoorsman who has come to
Skagway in the
District of Alaska in search of gold and adventure during the
Klondike Gold Rush of 1896–1899. Halliday often comes into conflict with Jeff Durain, a fast-talking adventurer prone to making money by illegal means. Durain owns and operates a hotel in Skagway which offers the
miners and
prospectors who have come to town for the gold rush the opportunity to gamble, but the games usually are rigged for Durain's benefit. Kathy O'Hara is the honest owner of another hotel in Skagway, and Halliday often works with her to block Durain from succeeding in his illegal schemes. Mike and Kathy have an affectionate relationship, but in his romantic life, Halliday plays the field, and is involved with a number of women, including Durain's girlfriend, the beautiful but greedy Goldie, who often is an accomplice in Durain's crimes. ==Cast==
