White Pine Public Museum — Attraction in Ely

This is an awesome museum. We originally stopped on our way through Ely, NV just to pass the time and check out the complete skeleton of the Cave Bear that is on display, which we did and it was magnificent. I didn't expect to be leaving this museum 2 1/2 hours later. There is so much to see here. They have a wonderful assortment of artifacts from just about every decade for the past 200 years and more. Fun place. I would definitely recommend this museum to anyone. It is a great place to bring the entire family. The staff is also very helpful and extremely polite. We will stop in again when our travels bring us...

Wonderful little small town museum with an eclectic mix of old items including a replica of the famous short snout cave bear found locally, scary medical equipment used over the last century, tiny cabins town leaders lived in over a hundred years ago, a school house smaller than that on little house, and a spanking paddle loaded with a powder cartridge for added effect, cheaper if you order 50 at a time.

It was a extreme experience to walk in and learn so much about my family and their time in Ely. The nice women who welcomed us in were beyond helpful. There are so many hidden treasures in this museum's peek into the past. It amazed me the items on display. Definitely worth the visit. Not to mention the complete cave bear skeleton. Amazing place. Wonderful caretakers of time Again, many thanks for...
