Within the Visitor's Center are audio-visual displays, a fully loaded
covered wagon, photos of early residents, and a gift shop. Upstairs you will find quilts,
works by local artists, and a dance floor. Bluff Fort is comprised of family-sponsored
cabins representative of those built before 1895. The oldest anglo-built structure in San
Juan County still stands within Bluff Fort! Step inside a genuine Navajo hogan and discover
that lifestyle. Dress in our pioneer attire, and climb aboard a covered wagon, or pull an
authentic pioneer handcart.
Take a picture.
Have a picnic. Free Restrooms.
Visitors Welcome After Hours:
During off hours, buildings are closed, but
visitors are welcome to stroll through the site, take a photo with a covered wagon or
peak through the windows of the pioneer cabins. A memorial wall honors those who
made the 1879-80 journey.
Our staff is ready to show you around and answer your questions.
