Offers recreational gold panning on their claim on Chicken Creek.
This gold dredge operated on Chicken Creek from 1959 until 1967, and was used on Pedro Creek outside of Fairbanks. The Pedro Dredge is a National Historic Site and is open to daily tours. It is one of the most complete Alaska gold dredges, an example of the type of equipment used to mine the area's gold deposits.
It would be a huge missed opportunity if the town named Chicken doesn't have a statue of... a chicken! Just refrain from trying to eat it.
