GB_Amateur Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 I'm starting a new thread (for an obvious reason -- change of topic), triggered by the following post: My question is specifically about this spinoff/version of the show. It's evolved into two related, semi-cooperative crews dredging McKinley Creek near the Northern end of the Alaska Panhandle. If somebody wants to bring up Todd Hoffman (oops, I just did), etc., well that's not what I'm hoping to read about. But it's a free world. I'm hoping some experienced dredgers will objectively critique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe D. Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 GB, As I recently stated in another post, I have zero experience in natural gold recovery! I don't know if that makes me totally objective! But being retired from a 30 year Public Safety career, the risk/reward aspect of what they showed was horrendous! Knowing that these shows are heavily edited to keep the average viewer interested, and is a goal of any reality TV show! But the safety issues I saw were hard to watch; but watch I did! I am amazed no one was seriously injured or killed! I give some credit to the knowledge of the individuals involved! But life is more valuable than gold in any form! And I think they realized this, late in the game! JMO! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
