This show, which is available exclusively on Discovery+, is all about the adventures and challenges that Freddy and his team face as they try to revive some of the most neglected and untapped gold mines in the United States.

The episodes of Gold Rush: Freddy Dodge's Mine Rescue begin with a brief introduction to the history and current state of the mine site that Freddy and his team are about to work on. The audience is shown how the site has fallen into disrepair and why it has been abandoned for years. It's both fascinating and heartbreaking to see these once-thriving mines now nothing more than decaying structures.
