Gateway to
Yosemite - Bozeman, historically, is a gateway. Bozeman is located
in a very fertile valley surrounded by mountains and mountain passes
through which humans have journeyed since before recorded history. This
is a major access point to the western entrance (via US-191) of Yosemite
National Park (just to the south in Wyoming). A few miles east (via
US-89) is access to the northern entrance to the Yosemite National Park.
Museum of the
Rockies - Bozeman is a university town. Site of the largest campus
in the state university system, its Montana State University campus also
invites non-students and, yes, non-residents, to utilize many of its
many resources.
The
Museum of the Rockies at MSU has an excellent display of dinosaur bones.
What seemed to intrigue our young companions much more was the huge
display of Native American things including some in depth displays
showing how they lived, their social life and tribal interrelationships.

The Museum also has an excellent - and very modern - planetarium.
They have added computerized graphics to the conventional projector and
all of us thoroughly enjoyed it.
The Museum is located opposite the stadium at South 7th Avenue
and East Kagy Boulevard in the south end of Bozemen.
From I-90 take exit 306 and drive south on 7th Avenue. When you
get to Main Street, turn right (7th is not a through street south of
here). Follow Main westbound to 11th Avenue, turn left and follow 11th
to its end at Kagy Boulevard. Turn left and follow Kagy back to 7th
Avenue and the museum. (You'll see the stadium before you see the
Museum.)
Note: if you are on your way to Yellowstone National Park, just
turn around and go back out Kagy to 11th Avenue. Turn right on 11th and
follow it to W. College Street. Turn left and drive westbound on College
to US-191 (which takes you to Yellowstone National Park.
