What To Expect

Adventure Sixty North

The canvas-covered log framed structure where we pan for gold is located just across from our walking bridge, between our office and the gift shop. Depending on the salmon run, we can often spy salmon in the creek. The covered troughs allow us to stay dry while panning, which makes this the perfect activity, rain or shine!

This was truly a fun experience! Ole’ Larry, our instructor was EXCELLENT. He showed us how to pan and what to look for. He is a storehouse of curious and historical facts about the Alaska gold mining era, it made it really interesting and fun. We all got gold and semi precious stones to take home. Highly recommended! Ask for Ole’ Larry!

We enjoyed this experience as a family. We learned a lot about the history of gold mining in Alaska from our miner, and had fun learning how to work the pan and find the gold. It gave us a taste of what panning for gold was like. It was a fun thing to do and the people were friendly too.
