Moenkopi恐龙足迹

For decades the Haskie family has taken tourists to see dinosaur tracks and fossils on their land outside of Tuba City. Now the Navajo Nation plans to preserve them. A paleontologist in St. George, Utah said this site could be one of the biggest in the country, but you need a permit from the Navajo Nation to study it thoroughly. The tracks embedded in the hard sandstone were most likely made by Dilophosaurus about 193 million years ago in a mudflat along a river and filled in and protected by super-fine sediment. Once they put a nice walking pathway you won't be able to walk along the tracks and touch these foot prints and knock on the fossilized dino bones to hear the hollow sound.

A great visit if you're in the area! I had a great experience with the Navajo guide who really was into the history. He was no paleontologist, but nonetheless informative in his own right. The place is free but I strongly recommend a decent tip of $10 to your guide. They sell locale Navajo crafts and jewelry there as well. Well worth the trip!
