Gold miner, adventurer, teacher, renaissance man. After interviewing Fred Hurt I thought you couldn’t describe the man with the infectious laugh and many tales to tell with just one word. Fortunately he could. He says he’s always been an “individualist.”

World renowned gold prospector and adventurer Tom Massie is all fired up and ready for the launch of his new season of Gold Fever set to air on Outdoor Channel in October.
Besides shooting all new episodes, Tom has been busy, well, just shooting!
“We invited some of the Alaska Gold Expedition participants to the first Alaska Great American Shootout,” Massie said.
“There were Smith & Wesson .500s, .50-cals, Raging Bulls and lots of .44 Magnums. Everybody lined up and when they started shooting all at once, the ground started moving like it was alive,” he said. “Bullets started flying off in different directions at all these different targets we set up. Propane bottles seemed to be one of the favorites.”
While Massie said he wasn’t sure one particular propane bottle was empty, it was definitely out of gas by the time the GPAA shooting gallery was finished with it.

Awesome little town with deep gold rush history.
On paper, walking from one end of the tiny town of Julian in San Diego County to the other should take 15 minutes, tops. Or all day.
There were no street fairs or pedestrian-heavy sidewalks to blame for my glacial pace along the five blocks that make up Main Street on a recent visit. Just apples. Every couple of steps brought temptation in new mouthwatering variations: pies, ciders, syrups, dumplings, shakes, caramels and … well, you get the idea.
Each year Julian draws thousands of visitors on the strength of its reputation as an apple town. And with good reason – the apple pie alone is worth the trip. But after the pie coma has worn off, don’t overlook the other diversions in this folksy hill town rich with Gold Rush history.
Just trying something out. : )
