Good forFamiliesHistory buffs

A reconstructed log cabin in Breckenridge, the Edwin Carter Discovery Center honors the 19th-century naturalist whose self-taught wildlife collection became a catalyst for the founding of the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. Carter built something that outlasted him — that's the whole story, and it's enough.
