Small museum that focuses more on fossils & dinos than geology, but still worth a visit, especially since it is free. Would have been great to see it in its heyday, some of the older exhibits are much higher quality than the new. Some…
Great little museum within the University which holds a number of large fossils, many but not all local, as well as a collection of fluorescent rocks & a working paleontology lab. Takes about an hour, free to get in
