Trivia
Dave refers in this segment to his impending trip to the mining community of Coarsegold "in the high country". Coarsegold is a key setting of Sam Peckinpah's breakthrough cinema film of two years later, "Ride The High Country".

Goofs
When Dave finds the gold, he reads the words on the bag as "US Army something". Dave spends the entire series claiming to be unable to read or write.

Quotes
Marshal Frank Dollar: Dave, you ever decide to sell that bay, let me know.
Dave Blassingame: You lost your chance there, Frank. I'm takin' him over to Coarse Gold. Old Man Turner is gonna give me $100 for that horse and he's gonna give me a job smoothin' out his rough string, too, so in three more days I'm going to be in the High Country - no more of your hot beer, no more lizards and I guess you pilgrims are gonna have to struggle along without me.

Gold Is Where You Find It

Dave vies with cunning old prospector (Hunnicutt) for lost treasure. Different kind of story, though ending left me unconvinced. Episode benefits from again showing Blassingame's all-too-human side. He doesn't do what conventions of the day dictated, so you don't know what to expect. Some good location photography, even if these blend poorly with cheap exteriors. Keith shines as usual, along with big mutt Brown. Best line-- "How much gold did it take for Dave to leave ya," sheriff's comment on finding Brown alone in the desert. Notable for Peckinpah again asserting the often neglected factor of weather as a real presence in Western life. Considering the expense involved for a small budget series, the brutal wind scene in the desert took some determination. Solid entry with a few surprises.
