Gold Rush: White Water

A late start to the season shortens the mining window and with record snowfall melt the crew face the most dangerous conditions ever.

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, forcing them to engineer a way to slow the rapids down or risk being washed over a waterfall; a faulty dredge valve on Fred's operation becomes explosive.

Dustin's crew is finally down to virgin ground but discovers their equipment is no match for the giant boulders at Rockfall Ravine, so Wes fabricates a new tool for their arsenal: The Mammoth Claw; Fred puts greenhorn Scott to the test.

Dustin gambles his life savings on a find; Carlos removes a monster boulder to discover chunky nuggets.

On a gold streak, Dustin dives deeper than ever and uncovers the largest obstacle of his career; new recruit Scott finally gets the opportunity to prove himself in the water, but a rookie mistake could end his career just as it's getting started.
