The Johnstown Flood was the worst tragedy to befall the United States during its Gilded Age (1870-1896). Its root cause may be found within the Allegheny Mountains, where a massive lake used by the exclusive South Fork Fishing & Hunting Club once existed. Some of America's most influential characters of the time, including Andrew Carnegie, had membership in this club. Today we explore what survives of this one-time resort and discover how it contributed to the loss of over 2,000 lives.
