Self guided tour was very informative. We had a stormy afternoon and this was a perfect place to go after a day in the Park. Enjoyed seeing Park history, train history and general information about the area, it's geology, flora, fauna and development.
We needed something to do indoors and tried the history center. The video about the 1959 earthquake was my favorite part. Interesting displays. Fair price.
Take your time and take it all in. A lot to soak in. Brings you back in time and makes you appreciate the current infrastructure and realize how much damage was done by the fires.
We spent a couple of hours talking and asking questions. We need to visit again next year. I like this little museum.
Nothing special, not at my aspectations...I traveled from Europe to see the oldest National Park... That is it?.. A fight betwen humans on coach and mobiles??? Where are animals aside of humans?.
Center contains several displys which feature the history of the area. It also displays two videos which illustrate the power of nature that shaped the area - earthquake and fire.
We were impressed by the helpfulness and courtesy of the rangers and the vast amount of information in the center.
We enjoyed the video of the 1988 fire and earthquake. Many artifacts to see inside and out of the museum.
If you have time, this is an interesting museum. However, it's not a must see. The admission allows re-entry for several days.
The reuse of train depot as historic center brought back to life a great building. The exhibits showed the a way of life and travel long forgotten.
