点评:On our way to Salt Lake City with our Caravan Tour, we stopped at this museum to see it and take lunch break.
The museum has an interpretive journey on Oregon trail. The first stop is at the Wagon Master's area where he discusses what you need, problems on way, food, what happens to that nice piano you think you need and throw away etc. The next stop was see how it felt to ride the wagon with bumps and grinds. The last stop was camp site where guide explained some of day to day life was.
The museum has small room downstairs which has various antiques and information of life of Montpelier. They tried to put materials in order with lack of space the items tended to spill over. What was very interesting were paintings which depicted various areas of Oregon trail what a task they had to travel. The paintings weren't complete since artist became ill and couldn't complete. Upstairs they had various quilts for sale both local and regionally. All beautiful, didn't have prices on them. Lastly they had small gift shop with various items for sale both local and small items.
Picnic tables under shelter are available - bring your own or go across street to Artic and either take out or eat in.

博物馆提供俄勒冈小道的解说之旅。第一站是马车主人区,他会讨论您需要什么、路上遇到的问题、食物、您认为需要但要扔掉的那架好钢琴会怎样等。下一站是体验乘坐颠簸的马车的感觉。最后一站是营地,导游会讲解一些日常生活。
博物馆楼下有一个小房间,里面有各种古董和蒙彼利埃生活的信息。他们试图将材料整理好,但由于空间不足,物品往往会散落一地。非常有趣的是描绘俄勒冈小道各个地区的绘画,描绘了他们必须完成的艰巨任务。由于艺术家生病了,无法完成,所以这些画作并不完整。楼上有各种被子出售,既有本地的,也有地区的。都很漂亮,没有标价。最后,他们还有一家小礼品店,出售各种当地商品和小商品。
提供遮蔽下的野餐桌 - 您可以自带,也可以穿过街道到 Artic 外带或堂食。
