Crow Creek Mine Image

Grab your shovel and pan, stand by for a quick demonstration, and try your luck at Crow Creek Mine for "a little color."

The mine, several miles up Crow Creek Road on the left as you drive into Girdwood, produced an average of 700 ounces of gold per month during its heyday (1898 - 1940). It's estimated that more gold remains on the site than has ever been recovered.

Overnight visitors are welcome. The accommodations are geared toward the independent traveler. Just like the Tooheys, who run the mine, you'll live without running water or electricity.
