We wanted to have a unique birthday celebration for our son and the Big Thunder exceeded all expectations. We did a tour and panning in the morning then Big Thunder team surprised us with a cake with candles and then we did a half a day claim experience. All team members are awesome! Trevor, during morning tour, told us many interesting stories about the history of the mine and Trent, during afternoon claim experience, was amazingly knowledgeable about gold panning and helpful with the whole process and we were pleasantly surprised that he even panned gold for us at the end.They don’t kid when they say you keep everything you get. Furthermore, their shop has a great selection of various gifts and souvenirs for any age.
The Big Thunder mine is a must visit place when visiting Keystone.

We're in our young 70's and we had a good time! From when we walked in and met Emily to when we left and were shown Mt Rushmore in the distance from the front porch of the store :) They were all friendly and gave us information about the great restaurant near by and local things. Very glad we went :)

Keystone was still pretty much a ghost town (most places closed for winter still or only open on the weekend). Big Thunder Gold Mine was open 9-5 and we were able to make a reservation the day before. It was snowing a little that morning and really cold/windy the day of the tour. Their regular guide wasn’t able to make it in due to the storm so Bryan the Grounds/Facility manager was doing the tours and he was fantastic. He was entertaining and very engaging with our entire family, especially our kids (17, 15, 10 and 8). He did a great job explaining the history of the mine itself and the Keystone area in general. He was very knowledgeable and you could tell he had spent a lot of time learning about the history of the property he cares for and maintains. The artifacts in the mine are museum were amazing. We paid a little extra to let the kids pan for gold in some troughs on the front porch of the Gift Shop and each of them got to come home with their own little vial with flakes they had extracted/panned themselves. This was right up there as a favorite part of the trip along with seeing Mt Rushmore and Crazy Horse! We would highly recommend the experience to anyone looking for some hands on fun!

The eve of our claim trip, there was a winter storm that rolled in. Postponing wasn't an option, and Trenton and BTGM did everything they could to make it the best excursion, and it was. My son (9) and I had a great time out in the snowy weather, and we found our gold literally in record time. They provided essential gloves for us, and the regular equipment. Great time.

Gold panning was one of the highlights of our trip. Trenton, our guide, is a delightful mixture of geologist, physicist, and historian, and his knowledge of the region and the miners of old is amazing. Loved his stories, loved the hike (altho the scramble through the rocks was a bit challenging for older folks), loved working beside the creek - didn't mind getting dirty. Found a wee bit of color, which we got to keep, along with some lovely garnets. Best day ever! Will do this again!

Are children younger than six allowed on the mine tour and gold panning after it?

I realized after I asked my first question that I wasn't specific about what kind of panning we were thinking of doing. We've already decided that we don't have the 4 or 8 hours free to go out to the claim (on this trip), so I really wanted to know if the on site panning in the troughs is worth the time? Meaning, do you find more than just a couple small flakes of gold? Can you also find gems or just gold? Our other option is Black Hills Caverns. Thanks!

We found flakes, but my kids - ages 14, 13 loved it and had a great time. There is a separate bag you can buy to pan for gems.

Not sure either since we travel as a couple. You could call them, and they would answer your question. We purchased a Groupon, and I'm not sure if they have any left or not but you might want to look there to see if you could purchase for a group, I do know that they will ask how many are in your party and try to accommodate as many in the same tour at once. That way you can stay as a group and after the tour go have something to eat at their restaurant, you won't be disappointed, and do sit out on their patio while you enjoy the scenery and weather.

There is a small group planning to visit the week of the 4th, should we buy tickets ahead of time?

We walked right in and didn't need to. We waited maybe 5 minutes, but there is more than one guide and they seem to stagger the tours because as we were going in, there was a group coming out. I'm not sure how busy it may be on the 4th, so maybe you could call ahead and see what they say. We had maybe 8 or 9 in our group.

You usually spend about 2 hours to do the tour, the gold panning and gem panning. Hope to see you. Sandi
