About us
The Back Alley Rock Shop believes that our customers' needs are of the utmost importance. Our team of 2 is committed to meeting those needs.
As a result, a high percentage of our business is from repeat customers and referrals. We welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and deliver you the best service in the industry. We offer true Alaskan hospitality.
Most folks who visit us think we're a museum when they first enter. I have been a resident of Skagway for 34 years. I have a passion for the natural things. Rocks are forever. Fossils fascinate me. I have lots of both.
What we'll do
We offer gold panning right on the premises. We have a large yard for this and more, including a rock and sculpture garden. Everyone is guaranteed to get real gold.
We are located right in the center of town and offer this gold panning experience as a highlight to your day in Skagway.
What to expect / what's provided
Duration: 30min or however long it takes you to find gold!
