Brought my nephew here before. Knowing that he's into dinosaurs and the like, he had so much fun in this museum. The exhibits were really informative and educational. They showcased different fossils which were gathered for more than one hundred years! That's awesome history learning right there. Moreover, the seeing mammoths were really exceptional and is definitely worth looking forward to.

Really cool educational stop with nice gift shop. It's also on an old fort with interesting things to see, including the spot where Crazy Horse was killed. Really glad we stopped here.
