General Tour
Information
- Our tours are as authentic
as you'll ever find. No fancy lights or modern marvels
here, just real mining the way it really was! All
guests are furnished with a hardhat and headlamp.
There are no other lights underground, period. Trails
underground are sometimes rough so wear appropriate
footwear. The temperature in the mine is 48 degrees
regardless of outside air temperature. A light jacket
is recommended. Cameras are always welcome! Tour
specific details are listed below.
