Catch gold fever on this panning adventure where gold is guaranteed! You’ll walk in the footsteps of Joe Juneau whose strike at Gold Creek set off the Alaska gold rush 130 years ago. Your prospector guide will provide a short city tour and lively narration with tall tales of the gold rush era en route to Gold Creek, the original spot where gold was discovered.
Your expert prospector will demonstrate gold panning techniques and you'll be off to the gold fields to strike it rich. Not only will you get to keep what you find, but you’ll also get a Gold Claim Certificate. Then, savor an all-you-can-eat Alaska salmon bake, including side dishes and dessert. Roast marshmallows over a campfire, enjoy musical entertainment and walk the trail to the waterfall and the remains of the historic Wagner Mine. You can shop at the Trading Post for Alaskan goods.
