"C.W. Mathers began his photographic career with the Edmonton branch studio of the Calgary photographic partnership of Boorne and May. According to photohistorian Brock Silversides, Mathers was Edmonton's only photographer for several years, including the first two years of the Klondike Gold Rush. Mathers never ventured beyond Athabasca Landing, about 100 miles north of Edmonton, during those two crucial years. He photographed many Klondikers, including the first woman to leave Edmonton for the Yukon. In 1901, three years after photographing stampeders departing by boat from Athabasca Landing, Mathers made his own epic journey of discovery along the same rivers followed by some of the Edmonton goldseekers."
