From a family who owns and operates an 80 foot barge, to an Alaskan social worker who sinks his life savings into a lifelong dream of being a gold miner ... and from the only female dredger in Nome, to a captain who needs to pay his debts to stay out jail, these rugged treasure hunters put it all on the line to scour the sea floor for sparkling, precious metal.
