Museum of the Rockies

Hi All,

After the Computer Museum we ate our picnic lunches in a small park where the boys found a tree to climb.


Next stop-the Museum of the Rockies at Montana State University. This place has a world class dinosaur collection and research center. 

This, of course, is T-Rex. We learned that top predators are far less numerous than prey or scavengers and since T-Rexes are so common, it was not a top predator but likely a scavenger.

This is one of several Triceratops skulls.

Everybody out of the pool for this early crocodilian.

This interesting display showed the skull changes as this dinosaur grew.

There were history exhibits as well. This Yellowstone National Park stagecoach circa 1895, was built in Concord, NH!

There was also a temporary exhibit on guitars.
A comprehensive and interesting collection, worth the trip.

Love,
