Outings are a great way to facilitate bonding in any group, reduce employee stress, and give people a chance to get to know each other better as they explore one of Colorado's Historic Sites.

The Hidee Gold Mine is a well lit and safe environment. The average temperature inside the mine is 45° Fahrenheit so a light jacket and closed toe shoes are recommended.

The accessible workings are on the 135-foot level of an adit driven 700 feet into the mountainside. The ground is level and the back height (ceiling) is generally above 6 foot so little stooping is required.

Visitors to the mine are welcome to try their hand at Hard Rock Mining. Use hammer and chisel to carve out a gold specimen from the main ore vein, yours to keep as part of the tour!

Tours are approximately 1 1/2 hours with ample time given to enjoy gold panning or lunch outside the mine, however tour space is limited so emailing or calling ahead is recommended.

Reservations must be made 14 days in advance (thanks, this gives us time to assemble extra guides)
