Gold Rush: White Water

After a devastating end to the season due to a major storm, the miners give us an in-depth look at the ups and downs of mining for gold in whitewater rapids, and what the future looks like for the Dakota Boys and their crew.

High in the Chilkat Mountains of Alaska, the Dakota boys believe McKinley Creek holds millions in gold. They embark on a 4-month journey and make an attempt at the most dangerous gold-mining in the world, dredging beneath freezing white water rapids.

The Dakota Boys and their crew members reflect on their wild season and look ahead to what's next.

The Dakota Boys return to McKinley Creek to dive for millions in gold. But the fierce Alaskan winter has destroyed their mining equipment. Their luck changes when Dustin locates the perfect plunge-pool he believes contains a massive pile of nuggets.

'The Dakota Boys' launch their gold dredge. Fred dives in the raging white water, and despite running out of air, the 72-year-old veteran succeeds in finding their first gold.

The first gold nugget promises a monster payday; Dustin dives into the danger zone, a torrent where the current moves rocks, and a rogue boulder almost costs him his life.

Television's most dangerous gold mining is back. The Dakota Boys double down on everything including crew, locations, and equipment, while the remote Alaska conditions punish their efforts like never before.

Equipment failure leaves one crew member with life-threatening burns, while the advantage of having two dredges up and running proves successful.

A hungry and aggressive apex predator tears through the miners' camp, forcing the crew members to come together to find a solution; the crew uses new equipment to speed up their gold recovery.

Fred and Dustin Hurt decide to split up in their hunt for gold in the raging waters of Alaska's Chilkat mountains. While Fred has an ideal spot picked out, Dustin has a big decision to make about his location.

Fred and his son Dustin risk their lives to find a fortune in gold nuggets, taking them deep beneath the waters of one of Alaska's wildest creeks.

Fred and his crew return to the glory hole to complete unfinished business. Dustin's crew strikes gold, but are blocked by massive boulders and must engineer an insane system of winches and pulleys to go deeper and get down to bedrock.

A late start to the season shortens their mining window and with record snowfall melt the crew faces the most dangerous conditions ever. Dustin picks up right where he left off at Rockfall Ravine, while Fred's future diving for gold lies in the balance.

The Dakota Boys race against time and put their new crew members to the test to rebuild their mine sites and haul heavy equipment to the Trifecta and Rockfall Ravine. Their first dive is golden and promises a successful season.

Carlos, Dustin and James battle the fastest and most violent rapids they've ever dove in. They must engineer a way to slow the rapids down or risk being washed over the 80-foot waterfall. A faulty dredge valve on Fred's operation becomes explosive.

Dustin takes the biggest gamble of this life and Fred drops a bombshell.

Dustin puts his money and reputation on the line, doubling down on two claims at once for the chance at a life-changing payday. Doubling the size of his operation means bringing in fresh blood who quickly learn the hard way just how dangerous mining the raging white water is.

Under extreme pressure to get his first gold of the season, Dustin pushes both crews to their limits at one of the world's most dangerous mine sites. And before they can prove themselves, mother nature shakes things up.

Dustin Hurt faces a dilemma: risk his life and financial ruin by purchasing and mining one of the most legendary and inhospitable claims in Alaska or play it safe in the white water of McKinley Creek.

Dustin's new Nugget Creek claim is said to hold life-changing deposits of gold, but Dustin and his crew must survive the most remote and inhospitable corners of Alaska to get it

With vital supplies running dangerously low at their remote Nugget Creek claim, Dustin attempts the impossible. Meanwhile, Kayla tackles the most dangerous diving conditions they've ever seen.

With Dustin M.I.A., the crew takes matters into their hands, hellbent on getting to the gold on Nugget Creek; bad blood between crew members derails the momentum and Mother Nature deals a killer blow, obliterating the creek beyond all recognition.

In the aftermath of a 40-year storm, Dustin and Kayla return to their claims to find them completely unrecognizable. But amid destruction comes a miracle and the two crews must stage the mother of all comebacks to recover from the devastation, once again risking their lives as they turn rock bottom into bedrock gold.

Weeks of battling Mother Nature has the crew at Nugget Creek running on empty -- but seeing a 4-ounce nugget is all the motivation Dustin needs to take charge of his season.

A heartbreaking revelation sends shockwaves through the crew as they tackle their toughest dive site yet in search of millions in gold

Reeling from tragic news, Dustin and the miners fight to get a diver in the water earlier than ever before, and their determination is rewarded

On the gold and desperate for more, Dustin Hurt and his intrepid band of brothers engage in trench warfare as they chase the pay streak up Nugget Creek. But one wrong move has the miners on the retreat

In the season premiere, Dustin and his loyal crew head deep into the remote Alaskan wilderness on their most ambitious, difficult, and dangerous season ever, as they risk their lives in the raging creeks of Alaska searching for a life-changing pile of gold nuggets.

Dustin disappears after a season-ending injury, leaving the crew to save their skyline with a risky "break it to fix it" plan. The new, but not improved, "deuce sluice" dredge pushes Dustin to the edge, but a win lifts crew morale, reigniting their drive.

On the gold, Dustin's crew inches closer to a monster payday. On a resupply mission to civilization, Wes goes missing after a life-threatening fall from the airboat into the raging 36°F river, and the crew fears the worst.
