Harold Charles Boutillier (1902 – 1980)
	
Harold Boutillier and his brother Donald started mining in the Klondike in 1925.((Edward Cowan, “Klondike Gold Still Way of Life.” //The New York Times// (New York), 12 August 1971.)) The brothers were in their twenties in the 1930s when they saw a UFO on the Hunker Creek Road. It was a cigar-shaped object skimming and following the hill line. The story was recounted to a thirteen-year-old girl when the Boutilliers were in their forties.((Martin Jasek, “There is more than Gold in them there Hills.” 2001 website accessed in 2020: http://www.ufobc.ca/yukon/goldhills.htm.)) 

Harold, Donald, and Harold’s wife Annabelle were lifetime miners in the Klondike. They lived on Adams Creek [Gulch?] for the mining season from May to September. In a good summer they would recover about four hundred ounces, and they once found a six-and-a-half-ounce nugget. They retired to their home in Vancouver in the fall of 1971.((Edward Cowan, “Klondike Gold Still Way of Life.” //The New York Times// (New York), 12 August 1971.)) Harold died in Victoria, British Columbia.((“Harold Charles Boutillier.” //Alaska Sportsman,// April 1981.))
