 Relive
Juneau’s gold rush history and pan for gold in
the authentic setting of Gold Creek. A costumed prospector
will guide you in a comfortable 24-passenger van through
a historic residential area en route to Last Chance
Basin. You will trace the route taken by Joe Juneau
and Richard Harris in their search for gold over 100
years ago. Near the famous Alaska-Juneau gold mine,
at its peak one of the world’s largest hard rock
mining operations, you will get hands-on experience
panning for gold in Gold Creek. “Guaranteed gold!” Our
prospector then recaptures the history of Juneau’s
gold discovery and hard rock mining as we view the remnants
of the mine.
INCLUDES: Escorted tour by your prospector/guide,
van transfer to Gold Creek and return, gold panning
instruction, narration on the gold discovery of Juneau
and hard rock mining and observation of the Alaska-Juneau
mine site. Souvenirs include the gold you pan and a
certificate for one square inch of the Orelove Bros.
claim.
