Visitor comment: The museum is difficult to find, but it's worth the effort! There are almost no signs to guude you there; we got a map from the office at the Indian Oasis Intermediate School on Highway 86. On the west end of Sells, turn south, pass the hospital, turn right on the road to Topawa (Indian Highway 19), go almost 10 miles, then left on Fresnal Canyon Road.
