Hike to Dinosaur Footprints


We (Kellis, Garrett, Isaac, Margaret, Mom, G-pa, and Virginia), started our hike at the trail head and ventured into the Vernal/Morrison wilderness with one goal...to find the dinosaur footprints.

The tail was a winding twisting treasure hunt (you had to find little pink footprints to make sure you were on the trail) filled with lizards, ant hills, and snakes...or so the boys kept telling me. The trail was about a 3 mile round trip. Margaret walked without any complaint...unit the last 1/2 of mile.

We found one! Yep, one. The other 10 were buried underneath the lake...the water table had risen pretty high.
No worries! The Flitton's tossed 100 rocks into the lake to make up for it.
It was a great adventure!


Allosaurus was here!
