It was in 1861 during the Cariboo Gold rush that a prospector named Bill Barker was out high up in the Cariboo Plateau near Stouts Gulch in the Cariboo Mountain range stuck gold. He dug down to a bedrock layer about 50 feet and his first haul of gold was about 60 ounces. Billy Barker was the richest man in town after finding over 37,000 ounces of gold however he died penniless.
