Park staff offer an extensive natural heritage education program throughout the camping season. Regularly scheduled events include children's programs, evening programs, guided hikes, campfires, tours of the turn-of-the-century mica mine and historic buildings and special events.

Silver Queen Mine, which operated between 1903 and 1920, is open during guided tours. You can see exposed mica and other minerals and find out more about the life of a miner at the turn of the century. An interpretive trail guide, available at the beginning of the trail leading to the mine, tells the mine's story.
