Gold Rush: Parker's Trail - Season 5

Parker begins booting up his new gold mining operation in Alaska. When he can't find a wash plant in the snow-covered north, he gambles on a last minute trip to New Zealand -- home to big gold and top-notch miners.

Parker and team venture off-grid to track down a legendary miner known as The Gambler on the gold-rich west coast of New Zealand. Parker's blown away by what he finds in the sluice.

Parker sizes up a high-tech gold-catching machine capable of floating on water. A sudden storm threatens to trap the team on a New Zealand glacier.

Parker jumps at an unexpected offer for a new claim and prospects Matt Dove's virgin ground in New Zealand's gold-rich Southern Alps.

Parker investigates a bucket dredge that's banked over $700 million and discovers his version of paradise: a gold-rich claim with every type of plant needed to strike it rich.

Parker pivots to test a shaker deck, but his inability to pull the trigger leads him to question the viability of his new Alaska operation.

Parker checks out a wash plant on tracks and considers a major pivot: building his own custom plant for the Alaska claim. Tyler and Jeff prospect for gold nuggets in New Zealand's richest river.

Parker dives for gold in shark-infested waters, explores a billion-dollar hard rock mine and reveals his final Alaska wash plant design.
