On July 9, 1931 Albert Johnson came paddling down the Peel River in the small trapping town of Fort McPherson, Canada. He was a mysterious outsider that arrived with thousands of dollars in hand. He used that money to buy the necessary items to begin trapping. The natives were none too pleased about this. This was only the beginning of trouble for the people of Fort McPherson. Johnson went on to become a fugitive. Responsible for the largest manhunt in Canadian history. From there, it only gets crazier from there!
