If You Like Fossils and Minerals...
What a great little museum. If you like fossils and minerals, you will love this place. The woman that told us about the dinosaur that was found by a professor of the Augustana College in Antartica was so informative. Everyone in our group of 6 was impressed with the quality and array of the collection. It is small, but packed with a lot to se

Geology Visit
The Fryxell Geology Museum is a huge treasure in a small space. This is such a wealth. It is a must see if you are anywhere near the college. So many of the specimens are works of art. They are absolutely gorgeous.

A pleasant surprise
This is a small museum on the Augustana College campus dedicated to geology. I thoroughly enjoyed it. A professor even helped me assess some rocks I had. Its a nice 2 hour visit and the campus is a nice relaxing walk as well.
