Gold Rush: White Water season premiere clip: The need for a second crew

A new season of Gold Rush: White Water premieres tonight, and it’s going to set the tone of the season. A second crew is necessary for Dustin Hurt this season.

It’s time for another season of gold mining in Alaska’s Chilkat Mountains. The Dakota boys return to the richest ground, but this season is going to bring a few difficult moments. One is so bad that it leads to a discussion of a second crew.

That’s where we’re at with the exclusive clip we have for tonight’s season premiere. A second crew is necessary, but that means getting enough gold to justify the cost of a second crew. It’s a balancing act.

On top of that, the terrain isn’t the most stable. There have constant falling rocks, which could put lives at risk. Mother Nature is not on their side.

Take a look at the clip below for the new episode. This goes into the reason for the second crew and the dangers the Dakota boys will face at the start.

Those falling rocks are certainly a worrying sign. Just how will the crew deal with that to succeed in the business?

There is a lot that’s going to happen this season. Fred Hurt is back in Alaska, and he’s going to have some shocking news. He’s not running his own white-water operation and is, instead, looking for the next big mining opportunity. This could be great for Dustin, who has a chance to buy up the mining equipment.

This is how it could be possible to run two crews. It brings the opportunity to double his income, but it also doubles the opportunity of huge failure. Is the investment worth the risk?

Gold Rush: White Water premieres tonight, Friday, Nov. 5, at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Discovery and discovery+.
