In "Gold Rush: Dave Turin's Lost Mine" season 4 episode 4, titled "Alaskan Hope," Dave Turin and his team continue their search for gold in Alaska. The episode starts with Dave trying to find a way to reach their remote base camp after a snowstorm blocked their path. Dave and his team finally make it to the camp and begin drilling for gold on three different sites.
The first site proves unsuccessful, but they find some promising signs on the second site. They drill a few more holes to confirm their findings and decide to start digging. However, as they start digging, they find that the ground is frozen solid in some areas. They have to use a jackhammer to break through the frozen ground and reach the pay dirt below.
At the third site, Dave and his team find an interesting geological formation, which could be a sign of gold. They drill a few more holes and find some good gold grades. However, as they start digging, they run into a major problem. The soil is very unstable, and they have to shore up their excavation area to prevent it from collapsing.
Meanwhile, Dave sends a crew to scout a fourth site, which he hopes will be more promising. The crew hikes to the site and starts drilling. They find some gold, but not enough to make it viable for mining. Dave and his team realize that they have hit a dead end and need to focus on the three sites they have already started working on.
In the middle of their work, Dave receives a call from his son, who tells him that his wife is in labor. Dave rushes home to be with his family and meets his new grandson for the first time. However, he knows that he cannot stay away from his mine for too long and quickly returns to Alaska.
Back at the mine, Dave's crew hits another snag. Their excavator breaks down, and they have to wait for a replacement part to arrive. The delay sets them back by several days, but they finally get the part and fix the equipment. They return to their excavation site and find that it collapsed while they were away, but they manage to shore it up and continue digging.
As the season progresses, Dave and his team face more challenges, including equipment breakdowns, harsh weather conditions, and unstable terrain. However, they never lose hope and keep pushing forward in their quest for gold.
Overall, Gold Rush: Dave Turin's Lost Mine season 4 episode 4, "Alaskan Hope," is an exciting and suspenseful episode that showcases the determination and resilience of Dave and his crew.
