Hike Through Gold Mine Historyon 2019-02-18
This 1.5 mile guided hike tells the story of hydraulic mining -- how gold was extracted from the surrounding hills using high-pressure water hoses. As you meander up Iowa Hill, authentic mining artifacts dot the landscape. At the top a restored boardinghouse (c. 1868) provides a glimpse into miners' lives.
