Plot
In the quaint Oregon seaside town of Manzanita, we find 14-year-old Julie, uprooted from her familiar life in Los Angeles owing to her father Robert's job loss. As her family - including her mother Kathryn and older sister Susan - grapples with this sudden change, Julie finds herself in an enchanting yet unfamiliar world. The story unfurls with a flashback to the 16th century, when Spanish sailors buried a treasure chest on the magnificent Neahkahnie Mountain, guarded by a slain black slave, creating a legend that has haunted this small town for centuries.
In her new home, Julie stumbles upon an ancient Spanish gold coin - a relic from the past - uncovered by a majestic Roosevelt Elk on the beach. This mysterious Elk with its distinctive black hand-print markings becomes Julie's silent guardian, guiding her on an unexpected adventure. Fascinated by the legend of the Tillamook Treasure, Julie turns to her grandfather and his friend Great Elk, a wise Native American, who reveal the rich history of the region and the mystic stories of the indigenous people.
Emboldened by the fables, Julie embarks on a quest to unearth the buried gold. As she delves deeper into the mystery, she encounters more than she anticipated. Her journey becomes a rite of passage, transforming her summer into an extraordinary exploration of lore, magic, and deeper understanding of her ancestral land.
The Legend of Tillamook's Gold is a captivating tale of a young girl's unforgettable summer, one filled with magic realism, humor, and the enchanting allure of age-old legends. As Julie unravels the truth, she discovers a treasure far more valuable than gold - the unshakeable bond of her family. This mystic story, rooted in the real legend of the Oregon coast, paints a vibrant picture of a remarkable adventure that redefines the true meaning of treasure.
