  Old photographs, artifacts, fossils, and historical curios; there is a little bit of everything here. They even have a hands-on dynamite detonator. The man who works here is also very knowledgeable about getting around Death Valley and can be very helpful in planning your visit. Admission is free, they depend on donations to keep operating. Note that the museum does not have restrooms. You have to go next door to the saloon.
