Get around
See
- West Texas Trail Museum, 100 E Weston, ☏ 1-307-756-3496, fax: 1-307-756-9347, ✉[email protected]. It's a typical museum for the region with everyday objects and local history stuffed so full at first it feels cramped. With the museum being so quiet and standing so close to those well used tools or carefully saved mementos it becomes a personal experience with Moorcroft's history. Along the hallways are old photos and there is a sizeable mineral display for such a small museum. Free.
Do
- Moorcroft Jubilee. second Saturday in July. Chuck Wagon Breakfast, Parade, Free Bar-b-que, Rodeo Playday, and a Street Dance.
