‘Gold Rush Mine Rescue’ Stars Reflect on Dramatic Season 5 Premiere & Tease What’s Next

Freddy Dodge and Juan Ibarra faced some of their biggest challenges during the Season 5 premiere of Gold Rush Mine Rescue. During the two-hour premiere episode on February 13, the duo headed to the Yukon to tackle an extensive treasure hunt to the tune of 288 claims across more than 6,000 acres. They looked to help Morgan Fraughton and his family, which was easier said than done. Dodge and Ibarra enlisted the help of a local expert in Jeff Bond for their gold expedition. This delicate project pushed the team to think outside-the-box and take a different approach. Here Dodge and Ibarra break down tackling this particular project and what else is to come on the Discovery Channel series.
