Between a Rock and a Hard Place
Fall will soon descend on the Yukon, and the miners are pushing for gold before the weather turns. Ken puts his moneymaker plant, the Beast, on the line to mine rocky ground he’s convinced is rich in gold. But big rocks are hard on equipment, and breakdowns are not an option. Bad ground forces Dennis to choose between the drive to mine and his loyalty to brother-in-law and business partner Cam. Karl’s push to mine with a prime new piece of gear is benched when his cut floods, putting his season in jeopardy.
There's something undeniably alluring about the idea of striking it rich. It's a universal dream and one that is explored in gripping detail in the TV series 'Gold Rush'. This thrilling reality show takes viewers into the lesser-known regions across Canada and United States, where teams of miners face daunting challenges as they dig for gold. With 15 seasons and over 291 episodes, this treasure trove of entertainment is a must-add to your BetaSeries account.
'Gold Rush' follows various family-run mining companies as they navigate the perilous world of placer gold mining. These fearless miners face numerous obstacles from equipment malfunctions to crew inexperience as they chase their golden dreams mostly in the Klondike region of Dawson City, Yukon, Canada and Alaska. The series was originally titled 'Gold Rush: Alaska', highlighting its initial focus on Porcupine Creek, Alaska.
The first season starts with a group of six men from Sandy, Oregon who had lost their jobs due to economic downturn. They decide to head north and invest their futures into prospecting for gold at Porcupine Creek. With little or no previous experience in placer gold mining, these greenhorns learn on the job, overcoming equipment breakdowns and personal conflicts along the way.
