Today we visited the Mammoth Site! This is an archaeological site where many many Mammoths have been uncovered. It appears that a pit of sorts was present here and became a trap where many Mammoths died and their remains were preserved.
The Mammoth site is impressive and well designed for educating visitors. Various points of interest are marked with numbered flags etc and along the walking path there are numerous auto guide stops where you can listen to a description of what you are viewing.
Depending on time and day, you can also watch scientists at work examining samples.
At the end of the visit is an area with two hands-on displays. Below is a photo and linked a video of the Stream Table. We ended up spending quite a while experimenting with the water and sediment movement.
