The Pike showing is located on the east side of Tutshi Lake across from Paddy Pass and the South Klondike Highway, about 70 kilometres west of Atlin. The showing outcrops in a creek bed between 900 and 1060 metres elevation.

The outcrop is composed of Upper Triassic Stuhini Group pyritiferous andesite. The andesite is argillically altered, medium grained and has a sugary texture. Intense gossans occur along with numerous highly fractured zones. The zones range from one to several metres across and contain intense alteration associated with slickensides on the margins. Very fine grained stringers and small veins, up to 2 centimetres wide, occur. Pyrite and minor amounts of chalcopyrite were noted. The highest value came a grab sample of quartz veinlets in the andesite which assayed 0.59 gram per tonne gold, and 0.5 gram per tonne silver (Assessment Report 15808).

The earliest record of work on the Pike property was by Dupont Exploration in 1981 who staked the Take claims to cover a copper geochemical anomaly in a stream sediment sample reportedly taken from the southern portion of the Pike claims. In 1986, the area of the current Pike claims was staked by H. Copeland of Whitehorse who completed a program of geological mapping, prospecting and geochemical sampling (12 rock and 1 stream silt). As part of an integrated geoscientific survey, the Geological Survey Branch of the B.C. Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources collected five silt sediment samples in the area in 1988. In 1993, two silt samples were taken from the area draining the claims in the regional geochemical survey covering NTS 104 M. In 1994, the Pike property was staked by R. Keefe who with R.H. McMillan collected 9 rock chip and 16 stream silt samples.
