Seemed much improved since I'd been there years ago. Nice self-guided tour well worth the price. Don't forget the stamp mill up the hill.

This is a hidden little park. It is fun for all ages. I recommend that you bring a small flashlight with you.

This is a fun place to visit with the kids, a walk into mine, a gift shop and picnic area.

Great hiking trails and lots of nature. Terrain can be a little steep in places. The mining displays are very interesting. Have not done the paid mine shaft 'tour'. Picnic area. Stream. All around something for everyone.
