Alaska's capital city, Juneau, may sport civic buildings but it also sits within easy reach of a wide range of outdoor pursuits, from cross country skiing and kayaking to glacier tours.
This museum curates, studies, and exhibits fossil collections from the public lands administered by BLM in Alaska. The museum collection includes more than 1,000 bones from at least 6 varieties of dinosaurs from the Late Cretaceous Period (65 to 72 million years ago). Pleistocene (10-thousand-year-old to 2-million-year-old) fossils include mammoths, saber tooth tigers, bison, mastodons, camels and many other fauna.
