About operator:
The Country Boy Mine, founded in 1887, is one of the oldest and most famous mines in Summit County, Colorado. Early in its over 100 year history, the Country Boy Mine was known for its gold and silver production and later earned national fame by producing large quantities of high grade lead and zinc for use in World War I and World War II.
In 1991, the Tomlinson Brothers, Doug and David, along with their families conceived the dream of restoring the collapsed mine and mine site into a historical venue. As was true in the 1800’s, much work and toil went into the restoration of the mine and its site.
