I really enjoyed the season starter of Gold Rush: Alaska. While I wish all the men heading out the very best I do hope that it doesn't spark too much of a "Rush" since there is a high probability of disaster on many levels and a very slim chance of actually striking it rich. The guys seem well organized and prepped with equipment even if some are greenhorns at the workings of it. However a less well prepped indivitual or group of people might bargan everything to lose everything if they think there is easy money to be made in prospecting. I personally I'm a woman who has been summer prospecting in Central BC most of my life and if I scraped together all the gold I have found I couldn't even buy a cup of coffee. For the person on a shoestring budget without access to heavy equipment or a claim that they are approved to use it on I recomend staying home unless you love digging ditches. Because it is a lot of hard physical work. I don't want to blow anyone's dream out of the water but just hope this series doesn't paint prospecting with rose colored glasses because it is not close to easy. I do know that I will be watching each week to see if it is golden dreams or bust for the guys of Gold Rush Alaska. Best of luck guys. goldamazon Review posted on Thursday, January 6th 2011 at 4:33 pm |
