Dinosaur National Monument spans Utah and Colorado as a vast protected area featuring paleontological sites and scenic landscapes. The park preserves fossil beds and offers hiking, viewpoints, and interpretive programs for visitors.
Dinosaur National Monument ranks among the world’s largest dinosaur graveyards with numerous complete skeletons. The Morrison Formation, a sandstone layer, lies across the area making it a prime location for Jurassic period fossils.
Paleontologist Earl Douglass discovered the first dinosaurs at the site in 1909, marking a milestone in early American paleontology and the study of prehistoric life.
The fossils are exposed in a wall forming a building side. About 2,000 bones are visible, with more than 20 complete dinosaurs and several thousand bones found at or near the site.
