Reviews
"The wall of bones is simply amazing. It's so cool to see the Dinosaur bones still sitting where they were actually found."
"This place is outstanding! There’s not much I can add to the comments and reviews other than emphasizing how the cliff face inside the Quarry Exhibit Hall is a sight to behold. While other Natural History museums provide a much more robust exhibit, none rival the ability to see hundreds of fossils in ziti."
"Unfortunately, the prime reason for going was to see the fossil wall and skeletons, but the center is closed for renovation. Both the Utah and Colorado sides have their inate beauty! Would have loved to have seen the wall, but."
"This park has tours,but you can take self guided tours because they have everything so well marked! It’s really nice the way they did the layout. Beside every fossil or footprint if you will is markings and signs describing what exactly you are looking at and how it came to be. With in this park are numerous pathways that are well marked and the ridge is a hike but views are breathtaking. From the top the big city of Denver looks tiny! If you’re there, don’t pass up any of the trails or exhibits or you may regret it!"
"This place is so great you have to go there. There's so many different places to go hike or go out on the water. They have like five different campsites if you want to go camping. They have a live fossil bed and you can go see dinosaur bones, and you can even touch them. If you go to the visitor center in Utah you can see the dinosaur bones and they have a shuttle to take you from the visitor center to the dinosaur center."
