Todd Hoffman and his family gamble on a remote, broken-down Alaskan mine. They have seven weeks to find gold before winter freezes them out.
Todd must deliver 300 ounces of gold in just seven weeks, so he needs to fix a huge wash plant. Later, he goes rogue and squares off with the mine owner.
Desperate to run more paydirt, Todd fires up the weathered and worn Big Trommel - but the plant is so worn-out, he’s nicknamed it Hot Mess.
It's Jack’s birthday but outstanding season goals leave no time for cake. The crew must solve why Hot Mess is leaking out more than half the gold in the pay dirt.
To hit his million-dollar goal, Todd pushes his team to get a third wash plant up and delivering gold. Plus, Andy is on a mission to revamp the mine’s roads.
When Alaskan temperatures plunge and their biggest plant is frozen shut, Todd’s team must save the remaining two wash plants from the same fate.
