Dakota Fred on Gold Rush: White Water

Different from its predecessor, “Gold Rush”, the show, “Gold Rush: White Water” isn’t your average gold mining TV show. Unlike the parent series that focuses on big industrialized equipment for digging out gold, this show takes a different path from it and uses mostly traditional methods for finding gold in the bottom of the river bed.

From zip lining to cross sheer canyons to using a dredge to suck up the materials for processing, the father-son duo does it all. The pair enjoys their profession and also exerts an enjoyable father-son bond.

Dakota started his career as a commercial driver in the Gulf of Mexico in the late 60s that taught him demolition, underwater salvaging, and various mining expeditions. He later shifted to mining after garnering 25 years of experience in the construction business.

Unfortunately, he failed and decided to move his mining grounds only to come back to Alaska. His decision turned out to be the best decision he made, for here he had a hands-on approach in building a gold processing plant that successfully extracted 600 ounces of gold ore from the frozen ground.

It is ironic how despite being a gold miner who has successfully found tons of gold, Dakota doesn’t live an upscale life. Instead, most of his money goes into the business itself. Gold mining is an expensive pursuit and requires a lot of financial support.

It is because of the success rate of Dakota and his son that they have been able to sustain their industry. Nevertheless, Dakota is content with his life and career choice and he is very happy. Dakota Fred has an estimated net worth of $6 million.
