Columbia, California in Tuolumne County is one of the most well visited parks that gives all a feel for the way things appeared shortly after the Gold Rush. Many of the old buildings date back to the 1850s which is why a number of Hollywood movies have been shot here, including "High Noon" with Gary Cooper and Grace Kelly; "Rage at Dawn" with Randolph Scott and Mala Powers; "Shadow Riders" with Tom Selleck, Katherine Ross, Sam Elliott and Ben Johnson; and "Pale Rider" with Clint Eastwood.

Come along as Jeff shows you were the movies were shot and the historical buildings in this timeless park.
