Last Chance Mining Museum

Such amazing information. The man that was volunteering had so much great information. We panned for gold in the stream. So relaxing and fun.

Just happened to visit the museum after a hike and loved it. Many mining related artifacts, friendly and helpful staff, and many more remnants of Juneau’s mining history. Beautiful location, but might be challenging for handicapped individuals to get to.

Cute little museum ran by volunteers. $5 cash admission fee gets you in to see the impressive collection of mining equipment. Volunteers are very knowledgeable about the old ways of mining. Notable is the steep incline to get in either a walk up a gravel path or a large flight of stairs. Beautiful scenery all around makes it worth the trip!

Great museum for Juneau’s mining history. Be aware that it is not handicapped accessible. You must walk a trail and cross a foot bridge and hike up to the museum.

It's a little challenging to get to, but there's great history of the area to be learned here. Other mine experiences charge $60 and up, whereas this is just $5. While it doesn't go into a mine, you get a great understanding of all the mining that went on in Juneau. Enjoy the drive in, the walk across the bridge, and all the ground. My family very much enjoyed our visit and we're glad we didn't pay $60 per person for the other mine experiences in town.

Cool little museum that appears to be family run. Emery for adults in $5 and we’re not charged for an 11 year old. Takes about 15 minutes to get through the museum. Best part was purchasing a plastic gold pan kit for $8 and then actually panning and finding gold flakes in the river below. Tip: Take taxi / ride share up to the mine and then walk back to town about 30 minutes, it’s beautiful.

Wow what an experience. Tons to learn about and the collection is incredible. Definitely worth the stop. Dig for gold in the stream and I even found some:)

Great place to visit! My son really enjoyed doing the scavenger hunt to win a prize, and bought a gold panning kit. It was a fun and memorable experience!
