In the shadow of the 1923 Mill building, gaze at the sparkling aquamarine water of Howe Sound. Then, the clanging bell from the train signals that it’s time to put on your hard hat & “climb aboard” for a thrilling ride deep into an authentic copper mine. This is a once in a lifetime experience for the senses. Your heart races as you see, touch & experience the life of a miner from historic times. Then outside again, “thar’s gold in them thar hills”, so grab your pan & stake your fortune.
