Here is how the season goes:
1 - Dustin: oh wow, I am sure that this place has NEVER had miners here before - we are going to find MILLIONS IN BEDROCK GOLD!
2 - They set up shop, dredge, run into a big rock, crack it, move the rock, dredge again
3 - some equipment malfunctions, they fix it, they dredge again, they find more big rocks (go back to step 2)
4- they check the box and find about $20 worth of gold
5 - a storm comes in, the hole gets filled with debris; repeat step 2
6 - they finally reach bedrock, no treasure trove of gold. They then plan to where their bumbling exploits will take them the following season.
7 - they make a mess of their natural surroundings (reference season 6 where they bulldozed land to set up their camp
IN A NUTSHELL: They would make a LOT more if they all quit this fool's errand and went and worked at McDonalds. It's not even close, actually.
