As Jack Hoffman would say no guts no glory!
Yes no problem. I want to see Todd hand over the 100 ounces he owes Parker.
I can't believe Tony gave in. But it's another $200k in his pocket. So why wouldn't he?

Now how is Parker going to get I think water to the new claim and how is he going to get a road into that claim. It will be interesting to find out.

Parker is a very smart miner so I am sure he will figure it all out. Helps his dad is a road builder too so I am sure between those 2 minds they will figure it out. The water on the other hand can be very interesting.

I still do not know why Todd made that bet. He had to know there was no way he was going to make more gold than Parker in the Klondike. Who knows maybe it was all staged by discovery to make the season more intriguing.

I personally think they could just do the show around Parker and the beets family but I am sure they will bring another act to the show.

What is your take on the Gold Rush white water show? I think it is intriguing the concept but the characters are way to cocky and make it really hard to watch.

Whitewater will never compete with the original Gold Rush for the following reasons:
- They're never, ever going to make as much gold
- It is not as interesting watching just on group of people
- Too much drama
- They only have one hook - diving in fast running water
- It is not as interesting when a 5 hp Briggs and Stratton breaks down vs a D-10 dozer

So last night they gave a little teaser of the real reason the Hoffman’s won’t be mining next season. I think Freddie quits on him which causes the whole team to break up.

What do my fellow CC’ers think?

It wouldn't surprise me. They also told us how Parker is going to get too his land! Now to see if he can get bonus gold out of it. So now will Parker stop mining for the other 1000 ounces on the Tony claim he's on now?
Man this is getting good.lol I can't wait till next Friday! Is it Friday yet :-)

I bet next week Parker gets so close to the 6000 ounce mark that he packs up for the season.

I think he mainly bought that claim so he can build a road to get to his other claim he is leasing. Either way with the amount of land he now owns and the land he is leasing he is setup for the next decade. But looks like he is still going to have to fight tony for water.

I know it’s getting really good I said the same thing. It ended and all I thought was I want more!

Exactly he has the access now. Only a $500k road. Water is the issue. When will that get addressed.lol

Parker will mine both areas. He has a wash plant that has run out of ground to mine so he will move it to the new claim.

Continue to mine on the old claim with the wash plant there.

IMO.

By the way, I haven't watched last nights show yet. Waiting on Dr. Phil reruns to start and the opportune moment.

He's leaving Parker? Where and who did he get ground from?
I thought Dave would have come back.

They didn’t get into the logistics yet. Just in the premier of the parkers Trail sub season Rick showed up and broke the news to Parker. Seemed staged because Parker took it way to well for him. Then the narrator congratulated rick and there was a #3rdmineboss at the top of the screen.

Somebody has to mine Tony Beet’s land now that Parker has moved on.
