Review & FAQ:
Discovered in 1891, the Mollie Kathleen Gold Mine descends 1,000 feet into the mountainside and is the only vertical shaft gold mine in the United States. Visitors will get to see exposed gold veins in their natural state, and the guides will share information about the history of the Cripple Creek Gold Camp as well as about modern day hard rock gold mining. It takes 2 minutes to descend into the mine, and tours last approximately 1 hour. Tickets can be purchased in the gift shop, and reservations are only available for groups of 25 people or more.
