Frontenac County in Southeastern Ontario is a rocky and rough terrain an hour's drive away from Kingston and Ottawa, yet wild and undisturbed. The beauty of the land is what brought Frank and Gloria Morrison to this area. They thought they had found a little piece of paradise where they could retire.
But two years ago, their dreams suddenly appeared in peril. Working in the woods, Frank noticed a small silver tag on one of his trees. He quickly realized the tag belonged to a prospector. Unannounced and uninvited, a prospector had staked a mining claim to the Morrisons' property. From that moment the prospector could show up anytime he pleased and have full access to the land he had staked.
