MUSEUM OF THE MOUNTAIN WEST EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR RECEIVES RECOGNITION

Recognition by the magazine was revealed in its January/February “Best of the West 2026” special collector’s edition available on national newsstands in January. Museum Founder and Executive Director Richard E. Fike commented, “I very much appreciate being honored again with this True West award because it affirms my lifelong goal of educating the public on the true historical stories and artifacts of the Western US. Since my first days of collecting in Skagway, Alaska, I continue to treasure the West and share it with the Museum of the Mountain West visitors from around the world to help save the past.” The Museum of the Mountain West, Inc., was also selected by True West Magazine in September/October 2025 as one of the Top Western Museums of the West 2025.
