Country Boy Mine: Reviews from families visiting Country Boy Mine. The Country Boy Mine, located in Breckenridge CO, just a few minutes from the main downtown area- is a fantastic place for families to visit. Especially if you have any tweens/teens who love the TV Show "Gold Rush" and have dreams of finding nuggets of their own... this is a great chance to tour a real gold mine and do a little panning of their own! THE TOUR When you arrive at Country Boy Mine, your first stop will be to pick up our mine tour tickets. Youll be given a brass tag, which serves as your admission ticket, and makes you part of the experience, as that is what miners were given to enter the mine back when it was an operating gold mine. When the bell rings, youll meet your guide at the entrance to the mine, and after a brief introduction, will follow your guide to the "dry room" where you will pick up a hard hat for the tour (Colorado law requires that all who enter a mine wear one), and (optionally) you can also don a yellow rain slicker for a little added warmth- it is only 45 degrees in the mine. Our tour guide, Tony, was a fantastic story teller, and really brought to life what it was like to work in the gold mine in the late 1800s. The conditions were harsh- and miners earned just $1/day (which was actually a good wage back then). Tony demonstrated how the miners created blast holes manually, as well as using "power tools"- and what that looked and even sounded like. He showed us what it would have been like to work by candlelight in the mine- and the kids were fascinated by the idea that kids back then could be hired as "blast monkeys" to place the dynamite into the blast holes. After the tour, Tony gave a gold panning demonstration- showing us how to dig deep to scoop up some material, and how to swish it in the pan so that the gold (if you happened to grab some) could be discovered. ACTIVITIES After the tour, you can stay as long as you like and pan for gold in the pools and nearby area on the property. And of course, anything that you find is yours to keep! My kids panned for about 1 1/2 hours, but unfortunately, we werent able to find any gold. However, I made up for that by purchasing each one of my kids a little vial of gold flakes from the gift shop for $8/each. (No one should come away empty handed, right?) While the older ones panned for gold, my younger kids slid down the mine chute (which is now a kids slide), and petted the mini burros that live at Country Boy Mine. There are also picnic tables available (but no food is sold on the premises- so youll need to bring your own lunch). PRICING Tickets for the tour (which allows you to pan as long as youd like) are $24/adults and $18/kids- so it is a bit pricey. But if you have kids who are as infatuated with the idea of finding gold as much as mine are- it is worth it. This was one of our favorite things that we did while in Colorado! OVERALL My family loved our visit to the Country Boy Mine- and would definitely recommend it to other families visiting the Breckenridge, CO area! *My family was given complimentary passes to tour the mine and pan for gold as part of our T-Roo American Road Trip adventure. But as always, all opinions expressed here are my own.
