Museum of the Mountain West in United States

This is a hidden gem! This is a true hidden gem! We met the founder, a professional archaeologist, who has lovingly assembled a vast collection of over half a million artifacts artfully and creatively displayed.

Best museum experience I was actually on my way to Black Canyon of Gunnison when I stopped to take pictures of the buildings. I didn't know it was open for touring. But i was there early and first and ran into the tour guides.

2 hour western history tour This was a very informative tour of the area and the history of the west. There is a lot of neat memorabilia and historic artifacts. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and personable.
