A short version of what the 'Gem Mine' offers...


Over 5,000 kids (from last season alone) can't be wrong about the "GEM MINE".  They say that it's SIMPLY
AMAZING!
...Whether it's a "UNIQUE" Picnic Birthday Party (for any kid, any age)... a "FANTASTIC" Field Trip   ( for
schools, day cares, summer rec. programs, scouting groups, etc.)... or, a  
"Small Group, Special Occasion" (for any reason).
The Town Of Dry Gulch has had RAVE REVIEWS for well over 20 years!
A stroll down the lane will bring you to the entrance of the "Dry Gulch Gem Mine".
The Mine is one more 'enchanting' area that we offer in our town.
You'll find:  a
Picnic Pavilion, a BBQ Pit, a Museum depicting some of the wild west history of this region, the 'Town
Jail',
the cutest lil'Miniature Town and Working Railroad, a Black Light Mineral Display in the shack of our Old Grumpy
Miner,
'Three Fingered Fuzzy' of 'Fuzzy's Hut.   Also a small scale(R.R.) Train Engine... great for kids photo's.
A
nd of course, our Acres of Fenced in Trails that lead to over one million genuine gemstones, faceted gems that are ready
for mounting!,  sharks teeth, quartz crystals, arrowheads, fossils, silver, gold, and so much more!
Note:  It's all real, and you  get to keep everything that you find!
There are no cliffs or caves that kids can get lost or hurt in.
NEW for 2010... Desert Critters ( rattlers, birds, scorpion, etc.) of the West are on display  in 'The Old Railroad
Tunnel'.  Come and see the real
Alligator Head which was responsible for giving Three Fingered Fuzzy his name!
Sorry Kids... We have thousands of pictures to choose from here at 'Dry Gulch', but not everyone can get their
pretty lil' faces posted to this web-site.  Just keep bugging Sheriff Bill, and eventually I'll get em on fir ya!
