A lone prospector ventures into Alaska during the Klondike Gold Rush hoping to find his fortune. He faces blizzards, starvation, and a lonely cabin shared with a wanted criminal. His quest for gold is intertwined with his comedic and poignant attempts to win the heart of a beautiful dance hall girl in a rough mining town.
