Dave Porter is the kind of youngster who turns every vacation into a real‑world adventure. When a sudden shout about a gold nugget and a runaway horse interrupts his summer at a Montana ranch, he’s thrust into a mystery that promises both danger and discovery. With his loyal friends by his side, Dave’s curiosity leads him to a hidden story buried beneath the mountains—a story that has been kept secret for years.
The boys learn of the legendary Landslide Mine, a once‑prosperous claim that vanished when a massive slide swallowed its entrance and all the markers that pointed to it. Determined to locate the lost treasure, they set out into rugged terrain, facing treacherous cliffs, rival prospectors, and the lingering grudges of old enemies. As the hunt begins, Dave’s quick thinking and steady courage keep the group one step ahead, turning a simple treasure hunt into a test of friendship and ingenuity.
