The Ruth Hall Museum of Paleontology at Ghost Ranch
Admission includedTucked into the red-rock landscape of Ghost Ranch near Abiquiu, New Mexico, the Ruth Hall Museum of Paleontology invites you to stand face to face with creatures that roamed this land more than 200 million years ago. The surrounding cliffs, painted in layers of ochre and rust, feel like a natural extension of the museum's story. Inside, the Ruth Hall Museum of Paleontology centers on Coelophysis bauri, New Mexico's state fossil, unearthed in extraordinary numbers just steps from the building. The displays are modest in scale but rich in context, making the science feel grounded in the actual ground beneath your feet.
