Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:09,567 --> 00:00:10,567
Pull it.
2
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:12,000
Whoa.
3
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:15,200
It's under water.
4
00:00:16,467 --> 00:00:17,467
Start the dredge.
5
00:00:19,634 --> 00:00:21,000
Pull that upstream.
6
00:00:23,734 --> 00:00:25,042
We can't get it outta there.
7
00:00:25,066 --> 00:00:27,710
Whoa! Watch out.
8
00:00:27,734 --> 00:00:30,876
Pull it back there.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
9
00:00:30,900 --> 00:00:31,900
What was that?
10
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:34,076
It came up.
11
00:00:34,100 --> 00:00:36,142
The water's coming up.
12
00:00:36,166 --> 00:00:38,433
- Holy.
- It's too treacherous.
13
00:00:38,934 --> 00:00:40,076
It's not safe.
14
00:00:40,100 --> 00:00:41,300
We need to get outta here.
15
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:42,943
Let's go.
16
00:00:42,967 --> 00:00:44,433
Let's get the hell out.
17
00:00:59,667 --> 00:01:01,467
Looks like a dang hurricane.
18
00:01:03,266 --> 00:01:04,600
Holy.
19
00:01:06,433 --> 00:01:08,100
We got little
Niagara right here.
20
00:01:09,433 --> 00:01:10,967
That's insane.
21
00:01:15,266 --> 00:01:18,700
But I've never seen it do
this, this is a record flood.
22
00:01:21,100 --> 00:01:23,567
The creek has risen
in a biblical way.
23
00:01:24,100 --> 00:01:25,100
This is scary.
24
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,600
Is this it? Is this
how we go out?
25
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:32,433
Is this the final chapter?
26
00:01:54,333 --> 00:01:56,867
Holy fricking moly!
27
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,276
This is insane.
28
00:02:00,300 --> 00:02:04,033
Last time we had rain like this we
had mudslides and we had fatalities.
29
00:02:05,500 --> 00:02:07,276
This is scary for Haines.
30
00:02:07,300 --> 00:02:09,000
This is scary for
Southeast Alaska.
31
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,309
Nine miles up the Tsirku River
32
00:02:13,333 --> 00:02:16,042
at their remote
gold mining camp,
33
00:02:16,066 --> 00:02:21,734
Dustin Hurt and his crew endure
the regions worst storm in 40 years.
34
00:02:23,467 --> 00:02:26,576
Trying to get the boats
away from the river.
35
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,142
Water is destroying
everything right now.
36
00:02:30,166 --> 00:02:32,667
I don't wanna lose my boats,
we have to have a way outta here.
37
00:02:34,100 --> 00:02:37,343
- Try to navigate around the sharp rocks.
- Okay.
38
00:02:37,367 --> 00:02:38,910
Good to go? Yeah.
39
00:02:38,934 --> 00:02:40,014
All right, pull it up then.
40
00:02:42,734 --> 00:02:44,176
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
41
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:48,309
It's so loose and soft. Damn it.
42
00:02:48,333 --> 00:02:51,433
The air boats are the life
blood of the mining operation.
43
00:02:52,333 --> 00:02:54,309
And in these conditions
44
00:02:54,333 --> 00:02:57,200
they're only chance of
emergency evacuation.
45
00:02:58,066 --> 00:02:59,066
Good to go?
46
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:03,667
Come on.
47
00:03:08,934 --> 00:03:10,166
Yeah, yeah. That'll do it.
48
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:15,967
That's not going nowhere.
49
00:03:23,967 --> 00:03:25,810
All right. Are we secure?
50
00:03:25,834 --> 00:03:26,834
Okay? We're secure.
51
00:03:32,967 --> 00:03:35,309
What a crazy morning.
52
00:03:35,333 --> 00:03:39,066
The crew retreat to camp
to wait for the storm to pass.
53
00:03:58,734 --> 00:04:00,066
I couldn't sleep all night.
54
00:04:01,066 --> 00:04:03,776
The storm was raging so hard.
55
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,433
Dustin and his crew
have survived the storm,
56
00:04:07,700 --> 00:04:10,200
but they may not have
a mining season left.
57
00:04:12,266 --> 00:04:14,176
Man.
58
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,700
That was a hard learning
experience right there.
59
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,667
This is a different game, man.
60
00:04:20,900 --> 00:04:22,900
I've never seen the
water come up that fast.
61
00:04:23,533 --> 00:04:25,343
That was chaos.
62
00:04:25,367 --> 00:04:28,233
You always underestimate
fricking the power of this
63
00:04:29,166 --> 00:04:30,276
water.
64
00:04:30,300 --> 00:04:32,767
I think being such a narrow
canyon makes it worse.
65
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,610
I'm from New Orleans and, we
would leave and get evacuated
66
00:04:37,634 --> 00:04:40,843
and you'd... You don't know
if your area got smashed.
67
00:04:40,867 --> 00:04:45,610
And then you come back to see
what's been done to your house.
68
00:04:45,634 --> 00:04:46,776
This is that same feeling,
69
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,209
like, let's go check out to
see what the devastation is.
70
00:04:49,233 --> 00:04:50,900
I know, I'm scared to go look.
71
00:05:03,634 --> 00:05:05,600
Hopefully not too much damage.
72
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:12,142
We've always been lucky with
the floods we've had in the past.
73
00:05:12,166 --> 00:05:17,710
Every member of the crew has
invested 11 weeks of backbreaking work
74
00:05:17,734 --> 00:05:21,100
in the hope of finding the
legendary Nugget Creek gold.
75
00:05:25,934 --> 00:05:28,567
- How's it look?
- Holy.
76
00:05:31,100 --> 00:05:32,433
That is bad.
77
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:34,400
My.
78
00:05:37,834 --> 00:05:39,600
It looks like a
tornado hit our tent.
79
00:05:41,433 --> 00:05:42,433
Wow.
80
00:05:43,266 --> 00:05:44,266
Check this out.
81
00:05:45,634 --> 00:05:47,000
My.
82
00:05:48,066 --> 00:05:49,066
Look at our dredge.
83
00:05:49,667 --> 00:05:50,667
It's buried.
84
00:05:52,233 --> 00:05:54,400
This whole engine and
pump was under water.
85
00:05:55,900 --> 00:05:59,367
! That completely broke our box.
86
00:06:00,967 --> 00:06:02,800
Un-operational.
87
00:06:04,934 --> 00:06:07,033
Look at all the boulders
built up right here.
88
00:06:07,934 --> 00:06:09,000
That was a deep hole.
89
00:06:10,467 --> 00:06:12,042
Yeah.
90
00:06:12,066 --> 00:06:13,667
We were on the
verge of getting gold.
91
00:06:14,900 --> 00:06:16,433
My.
92
00:06:18,834 --> 00:06:23,009
Last week, Kayla's
crew were 9 feet down
93
00:06:23,033 --> 00:06:27,009
and only inches away
from bedrock nuggets.
94
00:06:27,033 --> 00:06:31,343
I could only be a
couple feet from bedrock.
95
00:06:31,367 --> 00:06:33,476
That's the layer
we're looking for.
96
00:06:33,500 --> 00:06:35,810
That's the layer
that's got the gold in it.
97
00:06:35,834 --> 00:06:38,142
- I saw a couple little flakes.
- Really?
98
00:06:38,166 --> 00:06:42,042
- There's another one, yep.
- Hell, yeah.
99
00:06:42,066 --> 00:06:48,142
But the violent storm surge has
wiped out weeks of hard work.
100
00:06:48,166 --> 00:06:53,743
And with over half the season already
gone, they're back to square one.
101
00:06:53,767 --> 00:06:57,867
We cleared it all out, but now it's back.
Exactly how it was before we started.
102
00:07:02,467 --> 00:07:04,700
Well, it completely
submerged the wench.
103
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,776
What? Really?
104
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,734
I thought the winch was
definitely high enough.
105
00:07:11,266 --> 00:07:12,367
How's it look?
106
00:07:15,166 --> 00:07:17,967
My, completely full of silt.
107
00:07:18,667 --> 00:07:19,667
- No good?
- Yep.
108
00:07:20,433 --> 00:07:21,433
It's dead.
109
00:07:24,533 --> 00:07:25,667
Blocked everything up.
110
00:07:27,667 --> 00:07:31,409
This isn't just clearing out
small debris out of a hole,
111
00:07:31,433 --> 00:07:33,066
this is completely
starting over.
112
00:07:34,367 --> 00:07:35,467
My.
113
00:07:36,233 --> 00:07:37,800
We were getting so close too.
114
00:07:39,266 --> 00:07:40,500
Total annihilation.
115
00:07:41,767 --> 00:07:43,287
I don't know that
we're gonna recover.
116
00:07:47,100 --> 00:07:50,109
It's not impossible.
We can still start over,
117
00:07:50,133 --> 00:07:52,967
it really sucks to be starting
over this late in the season.
118
00:07:54,533 --> 00:07:55,934
It's either that or give up.
119
00:07:57,133 --> 00:07:58,800
I don't think any of
us wanna give up.
120
00:08:00,367 --> 00:08:01,467
Damn it.
121
00:08:12,033 --> 00:08:13,033
How's it look?
122
00:08:14,700 --> 00:08:19,266
600 feet down creek at
Dustin's Goldengate mine site.
123
00:08:21,233 --> 00:08:22,734
Holy!
124
00:08:28,367 --> 00:08:29,367
Holy crap.
125
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,300
My.
126
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:35,400
Man.
127
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:38,000
Look at the dredge.
128
00:08:41,367 --> 00:08:42,734
At least it's still here.
129
00:08:44,867 --> 00:08:46,710
Devastation came through
130
00:08:46,734 --> 00:08:51,133
and just annihilated everything we
worked for for the last two months.
131
00:08:52,567 --> 00:08:54,300
Our hole filled in.
132
00:08:56,300 --> 00:08:58,233
I don't recognize
this creek anymore.
133
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:02,066
This may have done us in.
134
00:09:05,233 --> 00:09:06,233
Wait a minute.
135
00:09:07,533 --> 00:09:09,133
No way! What?
136
00:09:10,033 --> 00:09:11,400
It dug it out for us.
137
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,767
No fricking way.
138
00:09:16,133 --> 00:09:17,133
Dustin!
139
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:19,734
What? Dude!
140
00:09:20,500 --> 00:09:21,500
Look at this.
141
00:09:22,033 --> 00:09:23,400
Holy cow.
142
00:09:25,533 --> 00:09:26,533
Wow!
143
00:09:28,433 --> 00:09:31,367
Took out a good 4
feet of our overburden.
144
00:09:32,567 --> 00:09:34,409
It is dry.
145
00:09:34,433 --> 00:09:36,200
It's like a whole new site now.
146
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,209
Look how deep this thing is now.
147
00:09:40,233 --> 00:09:42,333
So we don't have to do
all the work underwater.
148
00:09:43,133 --> 00:09:44,133
That's crazy.
149
00:09:46,900 --> 00:09:49,776
When they first arrived
at the Goldengates...
150
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,343
Dude. Good job, James.
151
00:09:51,367 --> 00:09:53,734
- Look at that bolder.
- I see it.
152
00:09:54,567 --> 00:09:56,710
The crew identified this giant,
153
00:09:56,734 --> 00:10:00,967
dubbed Big Ass Boulder,
as the perfect gold catch.
154
00:10:02,900 --> 00:10:06,209
Just seeing that boulder
by itself makes me think
155
00:10:06,233 --> 00:10:09,166
- of how much gold's underneath it.
- It's go time.
156
00:10:12,634 --> 00:10:15,776
Now, the rocks carried
down by the storm surge
157
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,376
have redirected the flow,
revealing what should be
158
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:24,433
gold rich creek bed in the prime
real estate beneath Big Ass Boulder.
159
00:10:26,767 --> 00:10:27,900
Look how lucky we are.
160
00:10:28,634 --> 00:10:30,376
Unbelievable.
161
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,867
There's a good possibility
that there's gold here.
162
00:10:36,333 --> 00:10:39,967
I expected the worst,
but it didn't happen.
163
00:10:41,300 --> 00:10:42,634
So bonus on us.
164
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:48,233
That would've took us a month
of good dives to get that deep.
165
00:10:49,734 --> 00:10:50,934
It changed everything.
166
00:10:51,867 --> 00:10:54,443
It dug a hole for us.
167
00:10:54,467 --> 00:10:57,166
With any luck just there'll
be boat loads of gold under it.
168
00:11:10,233 --> 00:11:13,009
Pull it forward
a little bit. Okay.
169
00:11:13,033 --> 00:11:16,409
After surveying the severe
damage to their claims,
170
00:11:16,433 --> 00:11:19,634
Scott is forced to attempt
a death defying mission.
171
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,209
Holy.
172
00:11:23,233 --> 00:11:26,810
There's not much of a choice,
I've gotta go get those guys.
173
00:11:26,834 --> 00:11:29,700
I've gotta get Justin and Wes,
we need them up here bad.
174
00:11:31,100 --> 00:11:34,409
With Wes and Justin
in town on a supply run
175
00:11:34,433 --> 00:11:40,042
it's up to Scott to retrieve them
and get the crew back to full strength.
176
00:11:40,066 --> 00:11:43,000
This is one of those, you know,
grab yourself by your boot straps,
177
00:11:43,700 --> 00:11:45,100
suck down a can of man,
178
00:11:46,500 --> 00:11:48,033
give 'er hell, and go for it.
179
00:11:50,333 --> 00:11:53,343
Look at all the trees going down
the main channel there. Yeah.
180
00:11:53,367 --> 00:11:55,047
You really gonna
have to dodge that stuff.
181
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:57,900
- Just take it slow.
- Yep.
182
00:12:00,667 --> 00:12:02,700
She's sounding feisty today.
183
00:12:12,433 --> 00:12:14,976
I know Scott likes to think
he's a good air boat driver,
184
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,934
but he's still way
too inexperienced.
185
00:12:23,934 --> 00:12:28,610
The Tsirku River is at its
highest level in 40 years.
186
00:12:28,634 --> 00:12:32,643
And novice skipper,
Scott, faces a 9 mile journey
187
00:12:32,667 --> 00:12:36,800
strewn with dangerous
tree trunks and debris.
188
00:13:00,266 --> 00:13:01,643
Holy.
189
00:13:01,667 --> 00:13:03,009
- Wes.
- Yes.
190
00:13:03,033 --> 00:13:06,242
That storm completely
destroyed our dive site.
191
00:13:06,266 --> 00:13:07,910
You serious?
192
00:13:07,934 --> 00:13:09,676
You would not have
believed it, dude.
193
00:13:09,700 --> 00:13:11,309
My.
194
00:13:11,333 --> 00:13:13,533
The power of that
water is astonishing?
195
00:13:28,834 --> 00:13:30,610
"-" Is right.
196
00:13:30,634 --> 00:13:33,100
That's not good. This is
a bad place. Yeah, it is.
197
00:13:34,433 --> 00:13:35,873
Come on. Don't
tell me this is dead.
198
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:40,066
What the hell is up with that?
199
00:13:42,533 --> 00:13:43,734
It's dead.
200
00:13:48,166 --> 00:13:50,433
Scott for Nugget Creek.
Scott for Nugget Creek.
201
00:13:53,567 --> 00:13:55,142
Come on.
202
00:13:55,166 --> 00:13:57,500
Scott for Nugget
Creek. Anybody there?
203
00:13:58,734 --> 00:14:00,367
This is ridiculous, man.
204
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,209
This is Wes, this is a no death.
205
00:14:04,233 --> 00:14:05,993
We're dead in the
water, floating backwards.
206
00:14:07,100 --> 00:14:09,400
All the frigging trees.
207
00:14:10,266 --> 00:14:11,876
We got one right in front of us.
208
00:14:11,900 --> 00:14:14,266
What the!
209
00:14:15,166 --> 00:14:16,166
We're spinning.
210
00:14:20,166 --> 00:14:21,333
We're moving backwards now.
211
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:23,600
Come on.
212
00:14:26,634 --> 00:14:28,400
It's gonna take us
right into that wall.
213
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,634
We are done. We're
toast. Hold on, boys!
214
00:14:34,734 --> 00:14:36,800
Hold on!
215
00:14:37,700 --> 00:14:39,433
Whoa!
216
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:48,800
It's gonna take us
right into that wall.
217
00:14:49,634 --> 00:14:50,634
Hold on!
218
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,133
Whoa!
219
00:14:57,667 --> 00:15:00,643
We need to get the outta
the water or we're dead.
220
00:15:00,667 --> 00:15:01,710
Yeah.
221
00:15:01,734 --> 00:15:03,943
Maybe we can
get this thing going.
222
00:15:03,967 --> 00:15:05,333
Connect that battery cable.
223
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,266
Justin, here, take that.
224
00:15:10,734 --> 00:15:12,000
The red light just came on.
225
00:15:13,367 --> 00:15:14,367
Come on, baby.
226
00:15:16,033 --> 00:15:17,033
Come on.
227
00:15:20,867 --> 00:15:21,867
Yes!
228
00:15:22,700 --> 00:15:23,900
Let's get the hell outta here.
229
00:15:24,634 --> 00:15:26,433
Back to the boat launch. Yep.
230
00:15:34,300 --> 00:15:38,300
We almost died. That was scary.
231
00:15:39,567 --> 00:15:40,567
Man.
232
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,000
We gotta get hellied
back to Nugget. I'll do that.
233
00:15:52,066 --> 00:15:54,409
The air boat out of commission
234
00:15:54,433 --> 00:16:00,567
the guys must shell out over $2,000
for safe passage back to Nugget Creek.
235
00:16:06,100 --> 00:16:08,443
My, I didn't think we were
gonna make it here, dude.
236
00:16:08,467 --> 00:16:10,233
Dude, we got lucky.
237
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:15,976
My, dude.
238
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,967
You won't believe our
boat ride we just had.
239
00:16:19,567 --> 00:16:22,109
Dude, man. What's going on?
240
00:16:22,133 --> 00:16:23,667
The boat decided to die on us.
241
00:16:25,700 --> 00:16:28,643
It went "boom".
Down. Just dropped.
242
00:16:28,667 --> 00:16:30,266
In the middle of the rapids.
243
00:16:31,233 --> 00:16:33,767
- Holy moly.
- It's all right.
244
00:16:35,834 --> 00:16:38,834
We hit that big 'ol solid
rock wall, we hit it hard.
245
00:16:42,133 --> 00:16:47,367
Luckily, he got it to start again and
idle all the way back to the boat ramp.
246
00:16:49,066 --> 00:16:50,476
I got us back.
Scott did good, man.
247
00:16:50,500 --> 00:16:53,076
- That's good. Good job, guys.
- And it worked out fine.
248
00:16:53,100 --> 00:16:55,266
Well, I'm glad
that y'all are safe.
249
00:16:56,734 --> 00:16:58,409
I'm glad you're okay.
250
00:16:58,433 --> 00:16:59,876
Welcome back. Thanks.
251
00:16:59,900 --> 00:17:01,443
We missed ya.
252
00:17:01,467 --> 00:17:03,347
I understand we got a
lot of water at the site.
253
00:17:04,367 --> 00:17:05,447
You gotta look at it, dude.
254
00:17:07,133 --> 00:17:08,400
It'll blow your damn mind.
255
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,276
I'm gonna have to go
change my drawers.
256
00:17:15,300 --> 00:17:17,743
That was a serious
ordeal right there.
257
00:17:17,767 --> 00:17:20,710
We got Wes back, so
I got a full crew now.
258
00:17:20,734 --> 00:17:22,934
We can all just
really throw down.
259
00:17:23,967 --> 00:17:25,287
Hopefully we can
get to the gold.
260
00:17:32,767 --> 00:17:34,300
It's salvage day.
261
00:17:36,033 --> 00:17:38,066
Hey, it's better
than quitting day.
262
00:17:39,233 --> 00:17:41,209
Now back to full strength,
263
00:17:41,233 --> 00:17:44,576
Dustin's crew return
to their dive site,
264
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,767
eager to dig the newly exposed
area beneath Big Ass Boulder.
265
00:17:50,300 --> 00:17:53,743
Work site definitely
looks 100% different now.
266
00:17:53,767 --> 00:17:58,033
But first, they must get their
mining setup operational again.
267
00:17:59,333 --> 00:18:02,843
I still don't know the
extent of the damage here.
268
00:18:02,867 --> 00:18:06,233
What're you thinking? I know
you got an idea of the plan.
269
00:18:07,867 --> 00:18:11,042
You know, it was a curse,
it destroyed everything.
270
00:18:11,066 --> 00:18:12,826
We're gonna treat it
like it was a blessing.
271
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,667
All right. First, I need
you to go up to the winch,
272
00:18:18,500 --> 00:18:20,276
start picking the
rocks out of it.
273
00:18:20,300 --> 00:18:23,343
The damn thing went
completely submerged underwater.
274
00:18:23,367 --> 00:18:24,533
Okay.
275
00:18:27,967 --> 00:18:29,567
My.
276
00:18:32,667 --> 00:18:36,066
That gravel is so wedged in
there the pulley won't even turn.
277
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:38,543
This is a wake up call
278
00:18:38,567 --> 00:18:41,876
for us to see how dangerous
it actually is in Nugget Creek.
279
00:18:41,900 --> 00:18:44,200
You can see what
happens in an instant.
280
00:18:46,467 --> 00:18:47,910
Carlos,
281
00:18:47,934 --> 00:18:52,476
I need this dredge outta the
water and off of this incline.
282
00:18:52,500 --> 00:18:57,209
Let's do an inspection on it, if it
made it I'd be very, very impressed.
283
00:18:57,233 --> 00:18:58,233
Got ya, man.
284
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,242
The winch system down,
285
00:19:02,266 --> 00:19:06,166
they must find another way
to lift the 2,000 pound dredge.
286
00:19:07,867 --> 00:19:09,367
It should slide up.
287
00:19:12,934 --> 00:19:14,376
Nah, it's stuck.
288
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:15,533
Damn.
289
00:19:16,700 --> 00:19:19,810
All right. I need a bunch
of anchors right here.
290
00:19:19,834 --> 00:19:21,610
Just try to get a
come-along on this thing
291
00:19:21,634 --> 00:19:24,009
and try to get this dredge
to slide up this way.
292
00:19:24,033 --> 00:19:25,033
Got it.
293
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:27,309
Dustin's plan...
294
00:19:27,333 --> 00:19:30,910
With the come-along on
this side, hook to those eyes.
295
00:19:30,934 --> 00:19:35,810
Push fix a winch system by
attaching a come-along to the dredge...
296
00:19:35,834 --> 00:19:37,333
That's good, James.
297
00:19:38,433 --> 00:19:40,066
A pulley to the cliff face,
298
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,567
and a redirect to an
overhanging alder tree.
299
00:19:45,433 --> 00:19:46,433
Make it tight.
300
00:19:48,700 --> 00:19:50,576
Yeah, we're done.
301
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:54,776
Do I think any of this is gonna
work? I have no fricking clue.
302
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:59,033
We can only try and just hope for
the best, pray for the best. Coming up.
303
00:20:04,867 --> 00:20:06,643
It's on the move.
304
00:20:06,667 --> 00:20:08,307
Make sure the front's
not getting hooked.
305
00:20:09,967 --> 00:20:10,967
Stop!
306
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,166
It's getting hung up.
Hey, can you lift it up?
307
00:20:16,634 --> 00:20:18,233
It's stuck against the rock.
308
00:20:20,867 --> 00:20:23,009
What the. I can't believe this.
309
00:20:23,033 --> 00:20:25,843
I think I'm gonna have to
let out on that come-along.
310
00:20:25,867 --> 00:20:26,934
Let it go, James.
311
00:20:30,233 --> 00:20:33,100
Are you crazy? Man, this river.
312
00:20:36,033 --> 00:20:37,433
Be very careful, dude.
313
00:20:38,300 --> 00:20:39,667
That's teetering.
314
00:20:40,734 --> 00:20:42,876
Is it coming up at
all? Yeah, dude.
315
00:20:42,900 --> 00:20:44,600
Let's just make
sure it doesn't slide.
316
00:20:46,500 --> 00:20:49,042
What was that?
317
00:20:49,066 --> 00:20:51,042
Whoa!
318
00:20:51,066 --> 00:20:52,900
Your alders are
coming loose. My what?
319
00:20:55,934 --> 00:21:00,142
I don't know if those alders
are gonna hold. What?
320
00:21:00,166 --> 00:21:03,643
- James, please don't go over.
- Almost there.
321
00:21:03,667 --> 00:21:05,467
Stop.
322
00:21:06,300 --> 00:21:08,076
Watch out. James. James!
323
00:21:08,100 --> 00:21:09,242
Whoo.
324
00:21:09,266 --> 00:21:11,367
Watch out!
325
00:21:16,300 --> 00:21:17,300
James?
326
00:21:18,934 --> 00:21:19,934
Man.
327
00:21:21,533 --> 00:21:23,743
All right.
328
00:21:23,767 --> 00:21:25,810
That's it.
329
00:21:25,834 --> 00:21:27,509
You all right, dude? Yep.
330
00:21:27,533 --> 00:21:29,242
So fricking close, man.
331
00:21:29,266 --> 00:21:31,643
Thank you, James.
Sorry about that.
332
00:21:31,667 --> 00:21:33,042
What a day.
333
00:21:33,066 --> 00:21:34,500
You did the job, man.
334
00:21:37,033 --> 00:21:39,700
We have, what
seems like, a full setup.
335
00:21:40,433 --> 00:21:42,643
I have everything I need.
336
00:21:42,667 --> 00:21:46,033
It's beat up, but we
were able to save
337
00:21:47,066 --> 00:21:48,066
just about
338
00:21:49,100 --> 00:21:50,100
everything.
339
00:21:50,734 --> 00:21:52,300
Kind of miraculous actually.
340
00:21:53,700 --> 00:21:57,567
This is huge. This just
opened up a whole new world.
341
00:22:16,233 --> 00:22:17,976
The carnage.
342
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,109
After a once in a
generation storm
343
00:22:21,133 --> 00:22:26,166
Kayla faces the reality that this
season could be a total washout.
344
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,767
That is a ton of damage.
345
00:22:31,100 --> 00:22:33,843
So today, what we
need to focus on is
346
00:22:33,867 --> 00:22:35,476
get fixed whatever
we need to get fixed.
347
00:22:35,500 --> 00:22:38,509
Get the dredge
back to working order.
348
00:22:38,533 --> 00:22:42,409
We have some parts of the
dredge that need to be hiked in.
349
00:22:42,433 --> 00:22:44,767
- Okay.
- We got a lot of work to do.
350
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,109
This is gonna be a
lot to recover from.
351
00:22:48,133 --> 00:22:50,934
This is a setback we really did
not need this time of the year.
352
00:22:53,233 --> 00:22:55,142
We had an extra
box back at camp,
353
00:22:55,166 --> 00:22:58,710
so we're gonna swap out
the good box for this one
354
00:22:58,734 --> 00:23:01,643
'cause the flood bent it all to.
355
00:23:01,667 --> 00:23:04,000
To stand any chance
of catching gold
356
00:23:05,734 --> 00:23:09,233
they will need to completely
overhaul their damaged dredge.
357
00:23:11,300 --> 00:23:13,800
It's gonna take all of us to
get this back in order again.
358
00:23:15,467 --> 00:23:16,867
That's good for now. 'Kay.
359
00:23:17,734 --> 00:23:19,066
But we're gonna go out fighting.
360
00:23:19,900 --> 00:23:21,000
We're not gonna quit.
361
00:23:25,033 --> 00:23:26,843
Justin, you're gonna
go get that sluice box?
362
00:23:26,867 --> 00:23:28,066
I'm going to, yeah.
363
00:23:29,900 --> 00:23:30,934
What are you waiting on?
364
00:23:32,367 --> 00:23:33,367
Thank you.
365
00:23:34,367 --> 00:23:35,710
All right.
366
00:23:35,734 --> 00:23:39,242
The only way in for the
bulky 70 pound sluice box,
367
00:23:39,266 --> 00:23:43,367
an 1,100 foot hike up the
steep incline of Nugget Creek.
368
00:23:49,467 --> 00:23:50,667
We're just carrying this back.
369
00:23:55,467 --> 00:23:57,900
Damn.
370
00:24:05,767 --> 00:24:06,767
Okay. I got this.
371
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:15,800
Whoa!
372
00:24:23,734 --> 00:24:24,734
Justin.
373
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:28,133
My. It collapsed.
374
00:24:30,333 --> 00:24:31,333
Justin!
375
00:24:35,066 --> 00:24:36,900
The boardwalk came down.
376
00:24:44,634 --> 00:24:47,367
- It just gave way.
- That could have been bad.
377
00:24:49,934 --> 00:24:52,910
My hand went up to the
carabiner, I was was like "".
378
00:24:52,934 --> 00:24:56,309
Wow. It's a
causality of the flood.
379
00:24:56,333 --> 00:25:00,433
I thought we were safe with our
walkway as high as it was, maybe not.
380
00:25:01,500 --> 00:25:03,100
I can repair it. I hope.
381
00:25:08,867 --> 00:25:14,233
Miraculously, Justin gets the sluice
box to the dive site in one piece.
382
00:25:16,433 --> 00:25:18,476
It was a scary
moment feeling that...
383
00:25:18,500 --> 00:25:21,509
Feeling the board under your
feet go down while you got the
384
00:25:21,533 --> 00:25:24,743
about a 60 - 70 pound
sluice on your shoulder.
385
00:25:24,767 --> 00:25:27,843
And to come down
like that, it was, crazy.
386
00:25:27,867 --> 00:25:30,533
But it's all because of
this recent weather event.
387
00:25:31,867 --> 00:25:33,834
Nugget Creek's
definitely putting up a fight.
388
00:25:40,934 --> 00:25:42,266
- Wes.
- Yep?
389
00:25:43,100 --> 00:25:44,300
How y'all doing over there?
390
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,166
So I gotta do a little
bit of adjustments
391
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:49,333
and put a swivel in here.
392
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:54,176
Down creek, the shift
in the course in the river
393
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,533
has opened up a new possibility.
394
00:25:58,166 --> 00:26:02,233
I'm trying to use this
destruction to my advantage.
395
00:26:03,867 --> 00:26:07,976
They can't dredge until
Wes gets their winch working
396
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,876
and they remove the rocks
below Big Ass Boulder.
397
00:26:11,900 --> 00:26:14,256
Really hope that
there's gold under these
398
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,834
rocks, so we can
continue on our lives here.
399
00:26:19,367 --> 00:26:20,344
Okay.
400
00:26:20,368 --> 00:26:22,767
I think that's gonna take
care of our problems.
401
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,033
Gotta be hopeful.
402
00:26:30,867 --> 00:26:33,333
What?
403
00:26:38,133 --> 00:26:39,133
It's working.
404
00:26:40,066 --> 00:26:41,800
Whoo-hoo!
405
00:26:43,033 --> 00:26:45,734
Yeah. We're back in operation.
406
00:26:46,500 --> 00:26:47,500
Whoo!
407
00:26:48,033 --> 00:26:49,033
Nice job, Wes.
408
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,100
Our beautiful skyline.
409
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:53,600
Perfect.
410
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:55,509
This is gonna be the first time
411
00:26:55,533 --> 00:26:58,900
anybody gets to see what we
actually do underwater above water.
412
00:27:02,266 --> 00:27:05,343
Let's start just hammering
into this wall right here.
413
00:27:05,367 --> 00:27:06,976
All this needs to come out.
414
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:12,109
Open it up, we're gonna go up, and
we're aiming at that big one right there.
415
00:27:12,133 --> 00:27:14,533
I wanna see what's right
underneath that sucker.
416
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:21,676
Dustin's plan, while this
section of creek bed is exposed
417
00:27:21,700 --> 00:27:26,166
use the charges to dry blast
and remove the last granite rocks,
418
00:27:27,100 --> 00:27:29,676
before allowing
enough water back in
419
00:27:29,700 --> 00:27:33,867
to dredge the gold rich gravels
beneath Big Ass Boulder.
420
00:27:38,166 --> 00:27:41,567
We have to get close to bedrock
in order to hit the big jackpot.
421
00:27:44,433 --> 00:27:48,300
All right. Ready for a pop?
Better get outta the way.
422
00:27:49,100 --> 00:27:51,533
Three, two, one!
423
00:27:54,934 --> 00:27:56,142
Yeah!
424
00:27:56,166 --> 00:27:58,266
We don't have to
do this underwater.
425
00:27:58,934 --> 00:28:00,543
Thank you.
426
00:28:00,567 --> 00:28:02,476
Get this underneath it? Yeah.
427
00:28:02,500 --> 00:28:04,634
Yeah. All right, Wes.
428
00:28:09,233 --> 00:28:10,943
Anything you can grab, man.
429
00:28:10,967 --> 00:28:13,400
Almost like you're dredging
without a damn dredge.
430
00:28:18,900 --> 00:28:20,643
Nice and deep.
431
00:28:20,667 --> 00:28:23,500
This is gonna throw
a lot of spray. All right.
432
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:25,300
Going hot!
433
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,100
Holy moly!
434
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,142
Dry blasting is far easier,
435
00:28:38,166 --> 00:28:42,142
but the flying rocks make
it much more dangerous.
436
00:28:42,166 --> 00:28:44,910
We're getting fly
rocks. Big time fly rocks.
437
00:28:44,934 --> 00:28:48,066
So me and James
taking extra precaution.
438
00:28:51,634 --> 00:28:54,266
Three, two, one!
439
00:28:58,266 --> 00:29:00,800
Holy, that hit the
dredge. Holy crap!
440
00:29:01,967 --> 00:29:05,033
That's it brother.
Look good, fellas.
441
00:29:11,467 --> 00:29:12,600
Finish him!
442
00:29:17,333 --> 00:29:19,467
What'd you think is
underneath that big boulder?
443
00:29:20,333 --> 00:29:21,776
Lots of gold?
444
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,266
I hope you're right, man.
445
00:29:29,333 --> 00:29:31,500
- You all right?
- Taste blood.
446
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:34,943
Wow. Okay.
447
00:29:34,967 --> 00:29:39,634
This is our last hope, y'all. If there's
no gold under these rocks we are sunk.
448
00:29:41,934 --> 00:29:43,934
You never know, man.
449
00:29:45,066 --> 00:29:46,066
Wait a minute.
450
00:29:47,266 --> 00:29:48,266
Hold on.
451
00:29:50,500 --> 00:29:51,600
Holy moly.
452
00:29:52,634 --> 00:29:53,634
What'd you got, man?
453
00:29:54,667 --> 00:29:55,667
Look at that, man.
454
00:29:56,667 --> 00:29:57,700
Found gold.
455
00:30:06,433 --> 00:30:07,433
Dustin.
456
00:30:08,433 --> 00:30:10,176
Holy moly.
457
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,767
- What'd you got, man?
- Look at that, man.
458
00:30:13,867 --> 00:30:14,867
Found gold.
459
00:30:16,066 --> 00:30:18,509
It's gorgeous, man.
460
00:30:18,533 --> 00:30:21,309
Convincing. That
looks like gold, don't it?
461
00:30:21,333 --> 00:30:22,676
Let's see.
462
00:30:22,700 --> 00:30:25,166
Pyrite. Whoo-hoo.
463
00:30:25,734 --> 00:30:26,767
That's a beauty.
464
00:30:28,233 --> 00:30:31,042
Fool's gold isn't
going to pay the bills,
465
00:30:31,066 --> 00:30:33,943
but pyrite is a great sign
466
00:30:33,967 --> 00:30:38,209
because it is often found
alongside the real thing.
467
00:30:38,233 --> 00:30:39,700
Good day, guys. Yeah.
468
00:30:40,433 --> 00:30:42,166
This is the kinda days we need.
469
00:30:46,033 --> 00:30:47,033
Beautiful.
470
00:30:53,767 --> 00:30:56,467
Is it Friday yet? We still
got a long week ahead.
471
00:30:58,033 --> 00:30:59,700
We have a lot of work to do.
472
00:31:00,867 --> 00:31:03,309
I'd love to get a dredge
in the water today.
473
00:31:03,333 --> 00:31:05,700
If we're not diving,
we're not finding gold.
474
00:31:07,367 --> 00:31:11,376
After the storm erased
months of work in just hours,
475
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,142
and left their future
in the balance,
476
00:31:14,166 --> 00:31:18,100
they now have less than two
months to get down to bedrock gold.
477
00:31:20,100 --> 00:31:21,176
Thank you.
478
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,409
We really need to get that
dredge back in the water,
479
00:31:23,433 --> 00:31:25,276
really need to get back to work.
480
00:31:25,300 --> 00:31:29,810
And we need to
find some gold soon.
481
00:31:29,834 --> 00:31:34,300
This is the engine that got water running
over it, I'm gonna do a quick test run.
482
00:31:45,767 --> 00:31:46,767
What's going on?
483
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:48,667
There's no water coming out.
484
00:31:49,634 --> 00:31:50,810
That doesn't sound good.
485
00:31:50,834 --> 00:31:52,033
Turn it off, turn it off.
486
00:31:53,700 --> 00:31:54,834
Something ain't right.
487
00:31:56,233 --> 00:31:57,266
What's going on here?
488
00:31:59,967 --> 00:32:02,000
Oil looks good though,
there's no water in it.
489
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:04,400
I don't know.
490
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,576
Hang on. I think maybe
it needs a pump seal.
491
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,300
I got ya. Yeah, yeah,
yeah. We can try.
492
00:32:17,300 --> 00:32:21,433
A rotating impeller inside
the pump creates a vacuum
493
00:32:22,433 --> 00:32:24,233
which sucks the water through.
494
00:32:26,500 --> 00:32:30,209
If that vacuum is
broken by a faulty seal,
495
00:32:30,233 --> 00:32:34,867
it will suck in air and
the water flow will stop.
496
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,543
I don't have new
seals for this pump,
497
00:32:43,567 --> 00:32:46,810
but we found some old
pumps with seals in 'em.
498
00:32:46,834 --> 00:32:49,734
It's not ideal, but we gotta
make do with what we have.
499
00:32:52,066 --> 00:32:54,300
It might not work,
but it's worth checking.
500
00:32:56,166 --> 00:32:57,367
It's all we got, I mean.
501
00:32:58,700 --> 00:32:59,934
I'm gonna try these out.
502
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:04,000
All right.
503
00:33:04,934 --> 00:33:05,934
See if it works.
504
00:33:10,300 --> 00:33:11,300
Come on.
505
00:33:14,367 --> 00:33:15,600
Yeah!
506
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:21,910
Got it.
507
00:33:21,934 --> 00:33:24,009
That was great!
508
00:33:24,033 --> 00:33:27,400
- Yeah.
- That was so awesome.
509
00:33:28,066 --> 00:33:29,943
Pump's working.
510
00:33:29,967 --> 00:33:32,233
That's what I needed.
511
00:33:33,333 --> 00:33:35,100
Whoo, nicely done.
512
00:33:38,100 --> 00:33:39,100
There we go.
513
00:33:40,367 --> 00:33:41,500
Engine's good.
514
00:33:42,533 --> 00:33:45,009
Now we have two working pumps.
515
00:33:45,033 --> 00:33:46,600
The last piece of the puzzle,
516
00:33:47,500 --> 00:33:49,443
install the new sluice.
517
00:33:49,467 --> 00:33:52,367
I'll get this on there and get
it back the way it should be.
518
00:34:01,133 --> 00:34:02,934
The sluice box is in its home.
519
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,676
We're getting closer
to getting back to work.
520
00:34:10,700 --> 00:34:14,076
This late in the season, not having
any gold I think is really wearing on me.
521
00:34:14,100 --> 00:34:17,433
So the faster that we can start
seeing gold the better it's gonna be.
522
00:34:18,333 --> 00:34:19,533
We needed that victory.
523
00:34:21,033 --> 00:34:23,513
We'll fight through it, we'll
conquer, and we'll get the gold.
524
00:34:44,433 --> 00:34:47,500
Man. My legs are. Me too.
525
00:34:48,567 --> 00:34:49,900
Another day in paradise.
526
00:34:52,634 --> 00:34:53,634
Look, dude.
527
00:34:54,734 --> 00:34:56,076
I had to get me
a frigging hardhat.
528
00:34:56,100 --> 00:35:00,810
I busted my noggin yesterday
with that dang breaking bar.
529
00:35:00,834 --> 00:35:03,576
- Man.
- Heck, yeah, man. It hurt, dude.
530
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:07,509
Hit my head so hard, man, I
tasted my fillings, dude. I was like "".
531
00:35:07,533 --> 00:35:08,934
No, man, this is
treacherous work.
532
00:35:11,567 --> 00:35:14,700
Back in Nugget Creek...
It's above water now.
533
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,610
Tear it up.
534
00:35:17,634 --> 00:35:21,543
Dustin and his crew return
to clear the last of the rocks
535
00:35:21,567 --> 00:35:26,033
before they can get to the bedrock
nuggets beneath Big Ass Boulder.
536
00:35:28,834 --> 00:35:31,066
Who would've thought the
flood would actually help us.
537
00:35:32,900 --> 00:35:33,900
Watch yourself.
538
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,400
Three, two, one!
539
00:35:41,266 --> 00:35:43,443
Whoo-hoo. Whoo!
540
00:35:43,467 --> 00:35:44,943
Sexy.
541
00:35:44,967 --> 00:35:47,333
There's gonna be
gold under those rocks.
542
00:35:48,433 --> 00:35:49,967
Now we're on a
frigging mission, dude.
543
00:35:53,467 --> 00:35:55,643
Break everything. Everything.
544
00:35:55,667 --> 00:35:58,100
Three, two, one!
545
00:36:01,033 --> 00:36:02,443
Whoo-hoo.
546
00:36:02,467 --> 00:36:04,834
We're gonna get this hole dug.
547
00:36:05,300 --> 00:36:06,300
Yeah.
548
00:36:12,533 --> 00:36:13,533
I love this.
549
00:36:15,934 --> 00:36:17,209
Look out.
550
00:36:17,233 --> 00:36:19,300
Moving the rocks
like the old timers.
551
00:36:20,900 --> 00:36:22,910
Yeah.
552
00:36:22,934 --> 00:36:25,042
We're getting things
out so fast today,
553
00:36:25,066 --> 00:36:27,800
it is just one basket
right after another.
554
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:31,200
We got this.
555
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,600
Nothing's going to stop us.
556
00:36:36,667 --> 00:36:38,634
Hell, yeah. Whoo.
557
00:36:44,266 --> 00:36:47,000
Holy.
558
00:36:47,900 --> 00:36:48,900
Carlos.
559
00:36:51,700 --> 00:36:52,700
What happened?
560
00:36:54,133 --> 00:36:57,009
That rock just came
off the power head.
561
00:36:57,033 --> 00:36:59,242
- And hit you in the head?
- Yeah.
562
00:36:59,266 --> 00:37:01,934
Holy.
563
00:37:02,567 --> 00:37:03,567
You all right?
564
00:37:04,867 --> 00:37:08,409
This saved me. Man.
565
00:37:08,433 --> 00:37:10,543
That nearly killed me, man.
566
00:37:10,567 --> 00:37:13,634
Dude, you got lucky.
567
00:37:14,266 --> 00:37:15,433
Holy.
568
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:21,843
Damn, this place can really,
really take you by surprise, man.
569
00:37:21,867 --> 00:37:23,876
Watch out.
570
00:37:23,900 --> 00:37:27,166
You can never be ready in Alaska,
man. You can only be prepared.
571
00:37:27,900 --> 00:37:29,166
And just hope for the best.
572
00:37:31,934 --> 00:37:33,300
Keep on going, man.
573
00:37:46,900 --> 00:37:49,142
The weather's already
starting to get colder.
574
00:37:49,166 --> 00:37:52,009
Yeah. Rainy season's here.
575
00:37:52,033 --> 00:37:54,567
It's just a matter of time
before this rain turns into snow.
576
00:37:56,767 --> 00:38:01,009
We really need to make
a ton of progress. Yep.
577
00:38:01,033 --> 00:38:05,333
Their dredge fixed, Kayla and
her crew can get back to mining.
578
00:38:06,700 --> 00:38:09,367
All right, let's get
this one ready to go.
579
00:38:11,033 --> 00:38:12,333
This is gonna take forever.
580
00:38:14,033 --> 00:38:15,033
It is.
581
00:38:16,433 --> 00:38:19,576
But with their dive hole
filled in by the storm
582
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,943
there's no guarantee they'll
reach the gold rich pay layer
583
00:38:22,967 --> 00:38:24,700
before the season's end.
584
00:38:25,900 --> 00:38:28,209
We have so much to do here,
585
00:38:28,233 --> 00:38:31,333
but we can't afford
to not find gold.
586
00:38:32,233 --> 00:38:34,233
- Yep.
- That's exactly right.
587
00:38:35,066 --> 00:38:38,100
So I want to get that
second dredge in.
588
00:38:40,300 --> 00:38:41,967
I want both dredge in the water,
589
00:38:42,734 --> 00:38:44,810
two divers in the water.
590
00:38:44,834 --> 00:38:49,033
If we don't make huge progress,
we're not gonna make it this year.
591
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:54,309
- Yeah.
- I agree.
592
00:38:54,333 --> 00:38:57,676
We gotta do everything we can to
get down to bedrock as fast as we can.
593
00:38:57,700 --> 00:38:58,934
We gotta get some progress.
594
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:05,443
Kayla's bold solution
risks running her crew thin,
595
00:39:05,467 --> 00:39:08,300
increasing the danger
for the divers below.
596
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:14,242
All right, everyone needs
to be on the same page
597
00:39:14,266 --> 00:39:19,109
and not giving 100%, they
need to give 1,000%. Yeah.
598
00:39:19,133 --> 00:39:21,600
We need all hands on deck
and everybody to bust ass.
599
00:39:24,233 --> 00:39:26,266
Watch yourself.
600
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:33,643
Whoo. Thank you.
601
00:39:33,667 --> 00:39:38,667
With two dredges they have a chance
of hitting gold before the season's end.
602
00:39:39,533 --> 00:39:40,600
Hammer time.
603
00:39:43,533 --> 00:39:45,533
Coming around
ya. Frigging heavy.
604
00:39:47,233 --> 00:39:49,076
I do enjoy a workout.
605
00:39:49,100 --> 00:39:52,767
I enjoy my workouts a lot more
though when they end in gold.
606
00:39:58,834 --> 00:40:00,509
Get this all nice and tight.
607
00:40:00,533 --> 00:40:02,910
I don't wanna lose air
while I'm trying to dive.
608
00:40:02,934 --> 00:40:03,934
We're getting there.
609
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,240
Couple more fittings
then we're gonna have it.
610
00:40:13,233 --> 00:40:15,476
Nice. Heck yeah.
611
00:40:15,500 --> 00:40:17,066
Let's get this
thing in the water.
612
00:40:17,700 --> 00:40:18,767
I really hope it works.
613
00:40:25,100 --> 00:40:26,300
We're actually floating.
614
00:40:26,934 --> 00:40:27,934
All right.
615
00:40:34,500 --> 00:40:36,242
That's good.
616
00:40:36,266 --> 00:40:37,906
Think we're ready
to fire this dredge up.
617
00:40:38,734 --> 00:40:39,734
Fingers crossed.
618
00:40:41,567 --> 00:40:44,066
I hope that works.
619
00:40:50,834 --> 00:40:51,834
Come on.
620
00:40:59,734 --> 00:41:00,734
Come on.
621
00:41:06,767 --> 00:41:07,767
It's working.
622
00:41:14,567 --> 00:41:17,743
Music to my ears.
623
00:41:17,767 --> 00:41:19,976
We got two dredges
in the water, y'all.
624
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,433
Yeah. We're getting
bedrock quick.
625
00:41:23,500 --> 00:41:24,500
Heck yeah.
626
00:41:25,300 --> 00:41:27,142
Well, that makes me feel good.
627
00:41:27,166 --> 00:41:29,376
- Seeing everything working.
- Yes.
628
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:31,843
Feels like we have hope.
629
00:41:31,867 --> 00:41:35,476
And we gonna be able to actually
go home with a pocket full of gold.
630
00:41:35,500 --> 00:41:39,266
Man, that sure is a pretty sight,
two dredges in the water side-by-side.
631
00:41:40,066 --> 00:41:41,276
Get two divers in the water,
632
00:41:41,300 --> 00:41:43,581
see if we can't tear this
place up and get to the bottom.
633
00:41:46,233 --> 00:41:49,139
So I'll be on this dredge
and you'll be on that one.
634
00:41:49,163 --> 00:41:49,543
Okay.
635
00:41:49,567 --> 00:41:52,847
I'll start on this side and you start on
that side, then we'll meet in the middle.
636
00:41:57,300 --> 00:41:58,667
We know there's gold here.
637
00:42:00,166 --> 00:42:02,713
We just gotta fight
through all this and get to it.
638
00:42:02,737 --> 00:42:03,737
Here we go.
639
00:42:14,367 --> 00:42:15,867
We're actually dredging again.
640
00:42:24,567 --> 00:42:26,209
We're moving a lot of material.
641
00:42:26,233 --> 00:42:28,133
Can't go any faster
with two dredges.
642
00:42:33,734 --> 00:42:36,767
Everything seems to
be jiving so far. Yes!
643
00:42:38,500 --> 00:42:40,233
I'm earning my dinner tonight.
644
00:42:41,900 --> 00:42:43,166
Back in business.
645
00:42:45,266 --> 00:42:47,734
That water.
646
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:51,476
Wow.
647
00:42:51,500 --> 00:42:54,710
That got real dark, real fast.
648
00:42:54,734 --> 00:42:59,576
Muddy water is a sign
of a landslide upstream.
649
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:01,533
I don't think I've
ever seen it that dark.
650
00:43:02,867 --> 00:43:04,367
Lots of debris coming down.
651
00:43:08,333 --> 00:43:09,533
Something came through.
652
00:43:10,367 --> 00:43:12,600
Chunks of ice. What?
653
00:43:16,100 --> 00:43:17,133
That snow bridge.
654
00:43:18,333 --> 00:43:21,876
If that gives way it's
gonna create a flash flood.
655
00:43:21,900 --> 00:43:25,943
It's August, but there is
still a 20 foot ice bridge
656
00:43:25,967 --> 00:43:27,934
200 feet up the creek.
657
00:43:29,266 --> 00:43:33,743
If it collapses it could
create an inland tsunami
658
00:43:33,767 --> 00:43:36,934
and wipe out both
crews in an instant.
659
00:43:38,133 --> 00:43:39,876
My.
660
00:43:39,900 --> 00:43:42,934
If we're in this water when that
flash flood comes through, we're dead.
661
00:43:56,467 --> 00:43:58,276
My.
662
00:43:58,300 --> 00:44:00,209
We've been getting chunks
of ice floating down here,
663
00:44:00,233 --> 00:44:02,033
so something gave
way up the stream.
664
00:44:03,066 --> 00:44:04,800
It had to be one of
those snow bridges.
665
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:08,042
High up Nugget Creek,
666
00:44:08,066 --> 00:44:12,042
Kayla's crew face the risk
of a collapsing ice bridge.
667
00:44:12,066 --> 00:44:13,200
Ice is breaking off.
668
00:44:14,900 --> 00:44:16,676
I think that's a chunk
of the snow bridge.
669
00:44:16,700 --> 00:44:17,967
My gosh.
670
00:44:18,634 --> 00:44:19,867
That's time for concern.
671
00:44:20,700 --> 00:44:21,900
I say we call it.
672
00:44:22,667 --> 00:44:23,700
Let's get outta here.
673
00:44:25,300 --> 00:44:27,843
Rather than risk a flash flood
674
00:44:27,867 --> 00:44:31,734
Kayla calls time on a successful
day of double dredging.
675
00:44:36,433 --> 00:44:37,800
It's operational again.
676
00:44:38,634 --> 00:44:39,634
Not bad.
677
00:44:39,967 --> 00:44:40,967
We're right there.
678
00:44:43,333 --> 00:44:46,409
I think we got down
to almost three feet,
679
00:44:46,433 --> 00:44:50,266
so we've got enough depth
now that we can actually dive.
680
00:44:51,300 --> 00:44:54,834
That flood set us back
so much, but today
681
00:44:56,266 --> 00:44:58,376
should be our turning point.
682
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:02,443
We put all the effort in to get
everything fixed, modified, or changed.
683
00:45:02,467 --> 00:45:05,343
And it's gonna
make it a lot faster
684
00:45:05,367 --> 00:45:08,000
for us to hit bedrock soon
and, hopefully, find some gold.
685
00:45:10,700 --> 00:45:14,576
Man. I could really
use a beer right now.
686
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:15,834
No, right.
687
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,600
I don't think we've ever
worked this much above water.
688
00:45:27,300 --> 00:45:33,476
Crowbars, slings, sledge hammers,
it's not what we normally do,
689
00:45:33,500 --> 00:45:35,676
but it's working.
690
00:45:35,700 --> 00:45:38,276
Down creek at Dustin's sight...
691
00:45:38,300 --> 00:45:40,476
I know there's gold here.
692
00:45:40,500 --> 00:45:45,509
Prospecting just like the old
timers, with a pickaxe and a gold pan,
693
00:45:45,533 --> 00:45:51,743
James is eager to see if Nugget
Creek will finally give up her treasure.
694
00:45:51,767 --> 00:45:55,367
Let's see if he can put his,
name to the test, The GoldHound.
695
00:45:57,300 --> 00:45:58,300
Well, we'll see.
696
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:01,600
If there's nothing
we're in big trouble.
697
00:46:05,333 --> 00:46:06,433
What'd you got, man?
698
00:46:08,433 --> 00:46:09,634
I swear that looks like gold.
699
00:46:10,667 --> 00:46:12,610
Yep, that's gold. Look at that.
700
00:46:12,634 --> 00:46:14,376
Ooh.
701
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:16,209
There's another piece.
702
00:46:16,233 --> 00:46:19,976
Hell yeah, dude.
That's great, man.
703
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,543
That's a picker, dude.
704
00:46:22,567 --> 00:46:23,867
That is fricking awesome.
705
00:46:25,433 --> 00:46:26,700
Good job!
706
00:46:29,100 --> 00:46:30,467
I needed to see that.
707
00:46:31,233 --> 00:46:33,610
Awesome.
708
00:46:33,634 --> 00:46:38,676
This pan of pickers is proof that
the ground beneath Big Ass Boulder
709
00:46:38,700 --> 00:46:40,500
could contain the jackpot.
710
00:46:41,500 --> 00:46:43,209
So that tells me we
should have a stream
711
00:46:43,233 --> 00:46:46,166
of gold going right down through
here all the way to the bedrock.
712
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:48,910
James found some gold.
713
00:46:48,934 --> 00:46:53,600
Everyone always said it's up here,
it's so hard to get to, we know that now.
714
00:46:54,634 --> 00:46:57,543
Just gotta keep working at this.
715
00:46:57,567 --> 00:47:03,467
If the weather will hold out for, like,
two weeks we are gonna crush this!
716
00:47:04,533 --> 00:47:07,743
We're so perfectly
setup with everything,
717
00:47:07,767 --> 00:47:10,443
just need the
weather to cooperate.
718
00:47:10,467 --> 00:47:15,133
And I can devastate this area
and we can pile up the gold.
719
00:47:15,734 --> 00:47:18,076
This is a good day, guys.
720
00:47:18,100 --> 00:47:20,066
It's been a heck
of a week, I tell ya.
721
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:23,133
Fricking Alaska, bro.
722
00:47:32,667 --> 00:47:35,543
On the next Gold
Rush: White Water...
723
00:47:35,567 --> 00:47:37,009
Water's definitely picking up.
724
00:47:37,033 --> 00:47:39,876
She's angry today.
725
00:47:39,900 --> 00:47:41,676
It's real death out there.
726
00:47:41,700 --> 00:47:44,109
I forbid my people to go out.
727
00:47:44,133 --> 00:47:46,567
Worst I've ever seen
it. Flooding. Landslides.
728
00:47:47,100 --> 00:47:48,100
Watch out.
729
00:47:49,300 --> 00:47:51,333
Whoa, whoa.
730
00:47:52,533 --> 00:47:53,943
It's the hardest
year I've ever had.
731
00:47:53,967 --> 00:47:55,509
You could not have
picked a worse year.
732
00:47:55,533 --> 00:47:56,876
The weather's beating me.
733
00:47:56,900 --> 00:47:58,467
If you stay with it
734
00:47:59,533 --> 00:48:00,773
this is what you're gonna find.
