In Gold Rush: Alaska season 4 episode 18, titled "Go Big or Go Home," the miners are faced with mounting pressure as they race against time to meet the season's end deadline. Parker Schnabel and his crew are running out of pay dirt, and with only a few weeks left in the season, they need to find a new source of gold before it's too late.

Meanwhile, Todd Hoffman and his team are determined to hit their target of 1000 ounces of gold, but they're struggling to find the right spot to dig. After a disappointing start to the season, Todd needs a big win to salvage their fortunes and beat their arch-rivals, Parker and Tony Beets.
