It was just awesome. Beautiful. Park rangers were around to take questions. Do the 8:30am departure if you can. No line, cave was wide open, like having it all to ourselves. Go to the Second...

What a lovely collection! The museum has many exhibits that illustrate the history of the area. There's a little bit of everything. Indigenous pieces, fiber art, war artifacts, sculptures, and a very cool room about famous locals. We especially enjoyed the horse and buggy as well as the antique stagecoach. The kids loved the room full of arrowheads. When I visited there was a large display of art made by kids from the local schools, much of it quite impressive. Give yourself about an hour to see everything. Admission is free.
