Season 2

(2012)

Overview

With a good old fashioned case of gold fever, the Gold Rush miners are back with a vengeance as they mine their way out of financially hard times. In this season, the Hoffmans and their crew will battle mother nature, and each other, while they head up north. Unforeseen circumstances threaten to jeopardize their dream of striking it rich in this rugged and frozen terrain.
