The folks here are very knowledgeable of this forts history and wear replica clothing of the era they are all quite proud of this area.

Such a unique experience. When you first pull up you will notice that there is 2 parking spots. My advice park in the one farthest away to really soak in the whole experience. The white and red structure may be a Fort, bit does look a bit like a castle in a big open plain with teepees around it. There are picnic benches here. Also for planners I would plan on 1 hour and 1/2 to 2 hours. Great for kids 2 + (but I would hold them as the ground is uneven and full of holes.)

That was a great place to visit and if your a history buff. You'll definitely enjoy the scenery and the stories told by the staff and volunteers.

Hi. I am related to Charles Larpenteur. I heard through the grapevine you had a book by him titled: The Original Journal of Charles Larpenteur: My Travels to the Rocky Mountains Between 1833 and 1872. Do you have a copy available to purchase?

You should contact Ft Union directly rather than Maps. If they don't have the book they may be able to help you anyway. The staff is extremely nice!
