Fodor's Review:

Just outside town is the Phoenix Gold Mine, still operating today. A seasoned miner leads tours underground, where you can wield 19th-century excavating tools or pan for gold. Whatever riches you find are yours to keep.

  • Cost: $10; $5 for gold panning only
  • Open: Daily 10-6, weather permitting
