Numerous photographs and mining equipment tell the story of an industry that was important to the town. Another prevalent theme is the Native American influence on the town. A very nice collection of arrowheads (gathered from the local area) that is worth the trip alone. The war room upstairs has been expanded show casing something for the War of 1812 to Afghanistan.
