Colorado School of Mines Geology Museum

013
  Even if you have no real interest in geology this is still a very enjoyable museum. Display cases on the first floor contain incredible rock specimens - little works of art created by mother nature. The basement level is more technical with displays about mining, fossils, meteorites and radioactivity.

  Everything is accessible. An elevator accesses the basement. Once downstairs follow the signs, push the button at the entrance door and listen for the click of the door unlocking. The door is a little heavy.

  Visit on the weekend when school is not in session for easy to find, free parking. Small RVs will fit in the museum lot. Larger ones can be parked on the street.  Museum
