I Watched the Finale of the "Gold Rush Alaska"
I watched the show last night - I have no TV so have to wait for someone to post it. The best place I have found is Vimeo and here is the show.
Alaska Gold Rush Season Finale from Joe Safety on Vimeo.
It was like the rest of them, a bunch of BS. But people are eating it up. I saw someplace else that it will be back next season. I hope they get rich and go off the air. Not that I think the contract they have with Discovery will let them walk away, but maybe they could find some people like "Jack" who know what to do.
I see that buy the end of the show they are all calling themselves seasoned miners. There is a laugh for you.
One thing that was interesting was a diesel fuel delivery they got. On the side of the little Tank truck it said "Biodiesel". I take it there is a subsidy for hauling corn oil all the way to Alaska. I wonder if the ships that deliver the crude from Valdez take it up on the return trip, so they are not traveling empty?
Simple pleasure: When your dog or cat follows you all over the house.
And here are a couple of sites to look at -

Yesterday I Talked About Gold Rush Alaska
If you have ever been in a scenario similer to the one the Discovery channel has set up here, 6 or 7 guys working in sort of isolation. You will know that sometimes there is a guy in the group that gets to be the butt of jokes and has everyone riding him. On a boat is is usually the cook.
In this case it looks like Dorsey got the honor. He has a blog he set up after he left that gives somewhat of an inside look at the reality of this and other reality type TV shows. I will put a link at the end so you can go see it. Todd say's "the show is the gold mine", and I guess it was, and still is.
There are a couple of links at this site.
