Big Thunder Gold Mine, Keystone SD

This tour resulted into being a fabulous tour. Dan, the "Panner" and his dog were fantastic tour guides. Dan made us laugh with all of his corky information & tidbits. A must do tour if ever you are in Keystone, SD area. And did you know that Gold Fever is actually a fatal condition caused by having too much mercury in the blood resulting in high fevers then death!!!
