At the end of your tour you'll be instructed on how, and then be allowed to pan for gold in Eureka creek. Hear the cries of GOLD! Best of all you'll be able to take your riches home with you - a great Colorado souvenir! To complete the mining scene, gentle and friendly burros roam the mine site. Each summer we have a new baby burro. The burros love attention and like to pose for pictures. There is also our 55 foot ore chute to slide down!!!
