An ancient chart shows a lost valley originally occupied by natives. Now the natives are gone but their treasure and the dinosaurs remain. Expeditions compete to recover the treasure hidden in a temple at the top of the valley. As you enter the valley, a volcano once dormant becomes active and threatens to engulf the area in lava. The race is on to take the fabulous riches of the temple or to die in the attempt. Try to get treasure coins out of the valley to win. 1 coin for a short game or 3 coins for a long game. The game however is unpredictable; lose all your explorers and you fail. If no coins are taken from the valley, the winner is the player with most treasure or if drawn, the most explorers left.
