We stop here almost every year when heading to or from Glacier National Park. It is a fabulous, interactive museum with hands-on activities such as pulling a boat up the river and seeing how a "5 way translation" worked. Not only is it great for kids, but very enjoyable and educational for adults, too.

They had a "Junior Adventurer" program which set the kids on a real study of the exhibits, which sparked their interest in the history both in the museum and as we drove through the state. The exhibits were well put together and informative. The staff are clearly passionate about the subject, and were a wonderful resource for information during our... More

My husband and I checked out this well thought out interpretive center this past February while in Great Falls. The biggest mistake we made was not allowing enough time!

Kids completed the junior explorer program, very educational and interactive for them! They were given a certificate and... More

The displays appeal to both adults and children and we walked away with a much better understanding of the hardships and importance of thier journey. We learned alot of new... More

Crams a great deal of information into a well designed museum. Fits nicely into the chain of Lewis and Clark sites that stretch along their route. More Americans should take the time to visit these facilities and appreciate history.
