He would talk to a girl and see a girl. He would not be looking for gold. It would not be cold. He wouldn't be working hard.

If Walt Masters did not live in the Yukon , there would not any snow. Also, there would not be any claims. And maybe he would not be able to talk to the Indians. And that is what I think will happen if Walt did not live in the Yukon.

The story would change if Walt Masters did not live in the Yukon because he would have at least talked to one girl. He would probably also wear some shoes instead of moccasins. I don't even think that he would have played under the Northern lights.

If Walt Masters didn't live in the Yukon there wouldn't be a person watching the unclaimed claims. The newcomers or stampeders would jump the claims that are not legal. If he wasn't there he also wouldn't have a dad that prospected gold. He would talk to a girl and see the technology we have now.

People wouldn't be recording claims. Walt and the other men wouldn't be fighting over the claim. There won't be any claims to record. Walt's mom probably wouldn't have died.

If Walt Masters didn't live in the Yukon the story would change by him living in the desert. There would be no claims, no one jumping claims, and no going to record their claims. The story would not happen the way it is told in my book. I like the story in the Yukon. The story where it is, is just fine and I don't want it to change.

If they didn't live in Yukon the story will change completly.Walt wouldn't have to watch his fathers claim nor Loren's claim.They wouldn't have to travel along way to get there property.If the setting change people wouldn't have to jump others people property.If the setting changed Walt didn't have to follow other people to make sure they didn't jump other peoples claim.

If he never lived in Yukon and he lived in the desert, he would never have to trudge through snow. Also if he did not live by water like, rivers or creaks he could not clean or drink water. He would not wear mocasins every where.

If the story had a different setting this is how it would change. First, his life would change. He could of seen a girl. Finally, the story might not have been about him being a prospector.
