Located in the northwest corner of Nebraska, it lies 25 miles south of Harrison along the Niobrara River. The park features fossil quarries containing numerous, well-preserved mammal fossils from the Miocene Epoch, as well as a museum housing the Cook Collection-a remarkable assemblage of Plains Indian artifacts. Summer temperatures typically reach the 90s, with sunny, dry days and occasional afternoon showers. In winter, temperatures can occasionally drop below zero, accompanied by varying amounts of snowfall. The monument is situated 50 miles north of Scotts Bluff National Monument and the towns of Scottsbluff and Gering, Nebraska-regional hubs for shopping, education, commercial air service, and medical care. Outdoor recreational opportunities abound in the surrounding area. Agate Fossil Beds is approximately a two-hour drive east of Colorado's Front Range and two hours south of the South Dakota Black Hills, making it a scenic and accessible destination for travelers.
