Gold Rush is the story of six men who, in the midst of a financial collapse, risk everything to become wealthy gold miners in the remote regions of Alaska, including their families, dignity, and sometimes even their lives.
Todd Hoffman of Sandy, Oregon, is motivated by his father Jack to lead a group of greenhorn miners in a new frontier and rescue their families from extreme poverty. While renting a gold claim in Alaska, Todd and his group of rookies encounter both the beauty and the challenges of the region.
Challenges such as the approaching winter that will put an end to operations and the chance to find gold. The team takes matters into their own hands by embarking on a make-or-break project that will alter their lives irrevocably in an attempt to keep the operation running.
The lives of gold miners in the Yukon are examined in the fourteenth season of Gold Rush, the enduring unscripted adventure reality series on Discovery Channel. The thrilling exploration challenges, rekindled rivalries, and unexpected twists and turns this season raise the stakes. Excavating deep into the ground, each team is motivated by the hope of discovering valuable gold.
Parker Schnabel began the season by investing all of his resources, both materially and financially, into a 4-acre plot that he completed in three days. He adopted a high-stakes, risk-and-reward approach, pushing the boundaries of his equipment and exhausting his crew.
Rick Ness has been battling his inner demons and barely making enough money to pay the landlord. But now things are becoming more difficult for these miners.

Recap
Let’s start with Tony Beets. He had to shovel out his jammed wash plant conveyor belt. Tony manages to extract 119.66 ounces of gold following a scene in which he shoots a squirrel and gets all of his equipment unclogged and fixed.
Next, we meet Parker Schnabel, whose high-stakes wager on the newly acquired land isn’t paying off as he had hoped. He thus made the decision to make a new incision on Ken and Stewart’s property.
A small operational setback results from the loader getting wrapped around a tree and the wash plant being moved. Following a scene in which Tyson is shown moaning uncontrollably, Parker’s team is able to perform a clean-up that results in 182.35 ounces.
The episode centres on Parker’s unwavering pursuit of his season goal, but Parker’s hard-earned momentum is put in jeopardy when an unanticipated emergency disrupts plans and puts a new crew in command.
In the meantime, Minnie assumes command and gives their operation a new dynamic by pressuring Tony to consult a mining expert. Rick’s fleet is seriously threatened by the hazardous conditions in Rally Valley, which makes the already difficult mining endeavours even more suspenseful.
In the previous episode you saw how the dangerous and erratic nature of the gold mining business is captured. Exciting moments and difficult choices awaited in “Gold Rush” Season 14 Episode 17, as the mining crews overcome unanticipated challenges in their search for valuable gold.
