Last season’s difficultie – including fierce weather conditions, broken equipment, and an inexperienced crew – hang heavy over the Gold Rush legend’s head. This year, Todd returns to Alaska’s Mammoth Valley Mine with his son Hunter, father Jack, a handpicked crew and a fleet of new equipment that leave him $750,000 in debt. Will he be able to pay off this deficit and turn a profit?
It won’t be easy, however. Todd’s son Hunter is sick of taking orders from his dad and will stop at nothing to prove he has the experience and skill to successfully run his own mine site, despite the overwhelming pressures. Hunter is attempted to out-mine his dad this season, and with tensions so high, the father-son drama is more intense than ever. Adding to the challenges of the season are brush fires, floods, wild animals, and an early Alaska winter. Hoffman Family Gold returns for Season 2 Friday, June 16 at 9 p.m. ET.
