The White River Museum is housed in two of the log buildings from the 1880's that served as officer's quarters of the federal troops stationed in the White River Valley, as a result of the altercation between Indian Agent N.C. Meeker and the Ute tribe in 1879 and the infamous Milk Creek Battle, the last Indian Tribe/U.S. Army battle in America. Named one of the last curio museums in Colorado, it is filled with collections ranging from the 1800s. White River Museum is a good resource for family information from the region. Tour groups are welcome. Open daily year-round (except for Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New Year's Day). Admission is FREE, but donations are appreciated.
