Lots of amazing things packed in to one little building! We would love to go out on one of the digs someday, we just didn't have the time. It is $150 per person for a full day with a 3 person minimum.

Great staff, beautiful displays, and awesome tours and digs! Great place to be if you want to discover more about Montana's view of paleontology.

Great to see Stegosaurus bone extraction on site from a plaster casing. The signs were informative and interesting. Great models as well as actual mineralized bones. You can touch one too! They are working on Montana's state dinosaur exhibit, the Maiasaurus, (8/17). I will have to go back to see it and hopefully go out to a dig site.
