Did someone say dinosaurs? If you enjoy bones and rock, join us on Sunday, June 29th, at 2:00 at the Dubois Museum. The paleontological team led by Dr. David Lovelace of the University of Wisconsin Madison Geology Museum will present their scientific findings. These include North America’s oldest dinosaur “Ahvaytum bahndooiveche” named in the Shoshone language found near Dubois.
Join us at the museum to leave for the Ramshorn Ranch located in the DuNoir Valley west of Dubois. This ranch has some of the most beautiful views as well as a rich history. The ranch has been owned by the Prine Family for several generations, and Craig Prine will tour us around the buildings as well as some tie hack ruins in the nearby woods.
The Wind River Visitor’s Center Adventure Trek Series and Pioneer Museum will host Stan Grove on a combination driving and walking tour of the geology of Beaver Rim.
Spots are limited and it is $15.00 per person. Will meet at the museum to carpool to the site.
The Dubois Museum is excited to have Michial Garvin, Traditional Education Coordinator of the Eastern Shoshone Tribal Health Office and a member of the Eastern Shoshone join us this summer. He will talk about the natural resources of the Wind River country and their traditional uses by the Shoshone peoples, their connection to their land, and their traditional foods.
