Museum of the Fur Trade

The museum holds an amazing number of beautiful artifacts both from the fur trading  industry and Native American cultures, the result of a lifetime of researching and collecting by Charles E. Hanson, Jr., a Nebraska farm boy, who as a child became fascinated with the American west. This is must stop if you're in the area. 

                    

The museum is accessible. The research room has a step down and is not accessible. A steep, very narrow, and inaccessible dirt path goes to reconstructed store room and trading post that were built on the location in 1837. The trading post was in use until 1876. 

 

The parking lot is large enough for most RVs. Museum  42.82392, -102.92819
