    Great interview. Watching Parker over the past years has been a pleasure. Love his Parents, and miss seeing those kind eyes, reflectiveness, and wisdom of Grandpa. Parker, you are truly blessed. Thanks for sharing a part of your life with friends you don't even know you have.

    This was the best interview with Parker I have ever seen. I love that he was able to get past the routine questions he always gets and is able to show some of Parker the man. We were able to see a bit more of who he is and what drives him ( other than gold and money) . Listening to him actually talk of his strengths and weaknesses and laugh at himself and compliment others showed a different side than what us viewers normally get to see.
    All in all, seeing him smile and laugh and be kind was wonderful. Makes me want to meet him and get to know the real guy not the businessman.

    I think I started watching Gold Rush in Parker's second season running his own operation in the Yukon. I didn't think much of him at first he was young with very little experience managing people and it really showed, he was just plain nasty to everyone. He's really grown in his role since then and I do truly have a lot of respect for him as a boss now. If I ever got the chance to go up there and gold mine I would want to be on Parker's crew!

    Gold Rush is more a glammer of who has the biggest and best toys to play in the mud with..Gold Mining in the real world doesn't cost 7 million a year to operate..The guys on Yukon Gold are realists and do it with old machines and dont even bother to try and spend more then they could possibly make..If you get a chance and haven't watched Yukon Gold I recommend it..They actually show the steps of making Gold and it running through the wash plant and isn't about the Drama..

      That is ambitious. Did you use it afterward, or is it for show? I'll bet they won't do a restoration quality rebuild on his, as it will just get used and broken again, and they hopefully have many people to work on it. I know what you mean though, as just doing a partial restore or resto-mod on a small machine or vehicle can be quite a job.

    I've liked Parker since the very beginning of Gold Rush when working with his Grandpa. Sometimes the boss is not very popular, just giving out orders, and people take it wrong. Plus Parker is very young,,so yes he has a lot to learn about being the boss. But Parker is still young, give him a break, he's human and makes mistakes. Hopefully as Parker gets older he's more like his deceased Grandpa, who was a fine man. I think he will.

      It has been satisfying to me to spend an hour a week watching Parker grow up. Face it. Its entertainment and so much more goes on plus created drama - not so much in the busiest camps - to make a product that isn't a swimsuit calendar of Todd.
      His success follows a familiar formula. Be knowledgeable. Surround yourself with good people. Hold yourself responsible.
      Parker grew up in a business oriented family. To his credit he kept with it. Having the good fortune of a production crew on site for a couple of summers was a mutual anf unforseen benefit. His relationship with John was more precious than anything all the crews have harvested the entire run of the show.
      Tony Beets taught Parker the realities of mining the first month Parker was in the Klondike. Tony had to have seen some quality in Parker or he would not have given him the time of day. Tony flat gets shit done.
      Its, as we are told, developed into an adversarial relationship. Now they're neighbors. Tony is a smart guy. He has used Parker to mine ground that he knew was going to be less profitable, plus charge him a premium to do it and using that income to finance what he likely has coveted for years. He pushed Parker until he got to where his operation produced enough to turn a profit. As neighbors though, they really are only competing with themselves.
      I hope upcoming seasons reveal not only realities of business but how neighbors' relationships are on the edge of civilation and relate to life on the frontier. Someday they are going to need each other.

      Its a TV SHOW... Its made that way on purpose. The rivalry between them is a good thing. Yes tony tests his ground, but even drill tests are not 100% accurate he even said that himself. They give a general idea. If they were accurate Parker would of used the data and mined the rich areas first then moved to lean areas. Tony is just a smart business person, he knew no one else was going to give parker land so he made that contract. He is smart. Its business. Tony made alot of money for no work or cost. But really tony should of just mined the land himself and made more money.

    Here is my idea for an awesome TV SHOW...........A small group of guys decide they want to go Gold mining ( Similar to Gold Rush, Discoveries most popular show ever ) But not Placer Gold they decide to go underground and mine Lode Gold ( Where most of the Gold is anyway ) So they go and explore a few abandoned mines looking for a good one. They find an awesome abandoned mine buy it, then form a mining company to raise funds to restore and operate this old mine. The stock is publicly traded on the stock market so the viewers or anyone for that matter can buy or sell shares at anytime. The show would be about the acquisition, development and operation of this old mine. The fact that viewers can own stock in this mine would be revolutionary because it would be the first show ever where viewers actually had a stake in the show they are watching!
    Lode mining is far more interesting and exciting than placer mining. You have explosives, history, terminology sights and sounds that most people have never seen plus all kinds of interesting minerals and rock formations as well as some danger.

    50 years in construction. Parker is absolutely right. Moving dirt efficiently is the difference between profit and bankruptcy. Simple as it sounds, it combines part science, part psychology and part artistry. You always look at the slowest part of your operation for improvement. Are trucks waiting to load or to dump, is one employee or piece of equipment slowing things down, are the haul road and turnarounds efficient.

    I liked Parker better when he was a young guy, full of energy and enthusiasm. It seems that the gold mining business is turning him into a cynical and bitter human being. So he's made millions, but what good is that if your life is a constant struggle filled with aggravation and outbursts of anger. It's quite ironic to see him gradually turn into a Tony Beets, the guy whom he hates most.

    I’ll tell you what amazes me in the gold aspect of gold rush.. The fact that a flake of gold will find a place to settle on the mats with the water rushing like it is. And on the other side a 3 inch rock will blow the end and not settle down on the gold mats.
