Ex-MMA fighter and prospector Kru Williams, young explorer Taylor Starr and her father and master carver Don Froese, join seasoned legend hunter and mountaineer Adam Palmer to follow the path of a failed 1982 Vancouver news team led by a Slumach gold hunter and mystic dowser.

After aborting his mission last season, lone wolf prospector David Muise returns undeterred and looking for a partner. The unexplored back door entrance into David's hidden valley has Adam intrigued and up for a new adventure in the search for Slumach's lost gold mine.

The final words of a lifelong gold hunter send Adam, Kru and Daryl Friesen through an icy gauntlet high above Pitt Lake. On the Gadsby claim, Kru and Daryl move earth in search of Slumach's walnut-sized gold nuggets, while Adam discovers a cave rumored to be Volcanic Brown's final resting place.
