Very small park. We would like to go back and see the Visitor's Center. The Bison are a 5 min or so hike with small hills. There is also a trail around the Bison enclosure. They have lots of room to roam so be prepared to follow extra trails to see them. A lot of history surrounds the area and a walking path is there with good information.

Very nice. Make sure to check for museum/visitor center hours. Closed on the weekends. Handicapped accessible near center and playground.

I was just expecting a regular park with some outdoor trails, but it was more than that. The fossils and history display was impressive. Paul was knowledgeable and had interesting information about the park and exhibits.

Fun park. If you get the chance to go and walk to see the bison, the home is not very long or hard, you should definately try to go. They are very cool animals to see.
