This museum was the reason we vacationed in South Dakota. We're incredibly big fans of Peter from the Emmy award winning documentary Dinosaur 13 (if you haven't seen it you must!) In hindsight we should have planned this vacation outside of the "field season" as we would have loved to meet Peter, but he was in Montana excavating a raptor when we visited. His Twitter account is updated regularly if you want to plan your visit better than we did. This museum is the direct result of an extreme passion. The collection of fossils, dinosaur and other fossilized bones is breathtaking. We visited Sue in Chicago and were even more impressed with Stan. We would recommend a trip to the Museum of Geology BEFORE your visit here. Their collection of rocks, gems and minerals is better, but this museum is far superior in every other way. In my opinion it is also better than the Field Museum in Chicago and is the true home of Sue no matter what any court decided.

Awesome paleontology finds and work! It isn't very large but it isn't expensive either. Plus, it has an incredible amount of dinosaurs in a small space. Would probably fill three rooms plus gift shop if the museum wasn't space-limited. Pete Larson is a wonderful person and I also highly recommend "Dinosaur 13" which is the story of how Pete and his team discovered "Sue" and the trials and tribulations resulting from that awesome discovery.

Love archeology? Be sure to check this museum out. Plenty to see, and the workers are happy to tell you all kinds of interesting stuff about dinosaur bone findings, etc. The gift shop really stands out amongst the rest as having a lot of neat unique items, too.
