Chris St. Jean

Chris St. Jean, a 48-year-old miner, hails from Vancouver Island but grew up in One Hundred Mile House, British Columbia. With 18 years of experience in the mining industry, he has recently uncovered a fascinating connection to the Klondike Gold Rush; his great-grandparents were among the early settlers of Dawson City, where his grandparents were also born and raised.

Chris balances his professional life with family commitments, as he has grown children from a previous marriage and cherishes the opportunity to be more involved in the life of his daughter, Zyla, alongside his partner, Nika. Known for his tireless work ethic, Chris is not only a skilled miner but also a resourceful mechanic, often tackling challenges with ingenuity.

However, his fiery temperament can sometimes lead to conflicts, especially when under pressure. Despite his high standards for success and a relentless determination to achieve his goals, Chris faces significant obstacles due to chronic knee issues that threaten to impede his work. Nevertheless, his resilience and dedication to the mining profession continue to define his journey, as he strives to leave a lasting legacy for his family and honor his family’s historical ties to the Klondike.
