Dinosaurs everywhere! In Vernal, Utah June 28, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — novellae @ 8:15 PM

We’re so excited to see the fossilized eggs, bones, and other paleolithic goodies at Dinosaur National Monument! Long live the dinosaurs!

Here is an excellent website: Northeastern Utah’s Dinosaurland.  It even has suggested itineraries with some wonderful ideas:  fishing, hiking, and…yay…petroglyphs!!!

The website says:

Located 10 miles north of Vernal, at McConkie Ranch, the Dry Fork Canyon petroglyphs are famous for their quality and accessibility. These panels cover 200 feet of cliff face in the Navajo formation. This gallery of primitive art dating from 1-1200 A.D. shows excellent examples of the Fremont culture. The petroglyphs are located on private land. Access
is granted to those who treat the artwork with respect.

Sounds excellent!
