Mike & Lou Busby (View My Profile) Chicken, Alaska is a small wilderness community with a handful of hearty souls savoring the raw Alaska... gold mining... ghosts of last century's gold rush...the Fortymile caribou herd... a float trip on a Wild & Scenic River... Arctic grayling fishing... fields of brilliant fireweed... wolves... the Northern Lights or Midnight Sun... take your pick, it's all here. And more!
The Chicken Gold Camp & Outpost is just south of the Taylor Highway on Airport Road in the center of Chicken, Alaska. It's built on the site of a camp established in the 1930s by the industrious Fairbanks Exploration Company for mining Chicken Creek with the Pedro Dredge, now a National Historic Site.
At the "Gold Camp," you'll explore the history of this early mining community, tour the gold dredge, view an actual working gold mine, experience the thrill of panning your own gold or mining on our claims, and enjoy a cappuccino in the Outpost while you browse the many unique gifts.
Enjoy dinner and entertainment on the deck, stay the night in the campground or rent a cabin and the next day enjoy a kayak trip on the river or some fishing after breakfast in the cafe. Come enjoy the "real" Alaska.
