Most visitors come to Yellowstone National Park to see the abundant wildlife, amazing thermal features or sweeping scenic vistas. But the park also has more than 300,000 cultural and natural artifacts, including skulls, scooters, skins and sketchbooks.
Yellowstone’s Heritage and Research Center in Gardiner, Mont. is a 32,000-square-foot facility that houses the park’s museum collection, archives, research library, herbarium and archaeology lab.
