Another place that celebrates the breathtaking beauty of the Rocky Mountains, the Museum of the Rockies goes even further with its educational programs dedicated to equality, cultural awareness and environmental conservation.
Located in Bozeman, permanent exhibits include everything from “Enduring Peoples,” which chronicles the lives and times of Native American and Northern Plains tribes, to “The Living History Farm” with costumed actors roleplaying Montana’s frontier days and teaching kids about things like fur trading and butter churning.
Temporary exhibits have been devoted to plants, animals, architecture, music and major historical events such as the gold rush of the 1800s.
Other points of interest include the planetarium for stargazing and the paleontology collection for marveling at dinosaur bones.
Fun fact: The museum boasts the largest T-Rex skull in the entire country!
