There was a need for most every trade that supplied the miners with the tools to prospect for gold. Almost everything we need today was used back then. People were needed to cook and fix equipment, sell shovels and food. There was entertainment, saloons and veterinarians to take care of the horses. One common way to make a living was to work in the mines or to work for other miners on their claims.
