During the Gold Rush, forty-niners, who were the miners seeking fortune, lived in makeshift camps or towns, often consisting of tents or wooden shacks. Life was challenging, with harsh conditions, limited resources, and a constant threat of crime and conflict. Many worked long hours in difficult conditions, using simple tools to extract gold from rivers and hills. Despite the hardships, the pursuit of wealth attracted a diverse group of people, leading to rapid population growth and the development of new communities in the West.
