Great experience! To note, the directions are a bit tricky. There were no flags, just put the mine into your maps and go! Ignore the rest.

We found a good collection of fools gold, peacock ore and gold flakes. Worth the visit.

My husband and I did the mine tour and then panned for gold. We don't normally do tours but though we'd try it after skiing. What made our tour the absolute best was our guide Meg. Meg truly loves what she does and this comes across in her toue. She is so knowledge about this mine and mining in general. Meg was able to answer all of our questions. Our group was small. We were able to go 1/4 mile into an actual mine shaft and the back stories along the way made us very appreciative of all we have today. Life was very rough back in the day. Highly recommend this tour. Affordable, friendly and very informative. Thanks again Meg!
