Colorado Family Dinosaur Adventure
July 11-17, 2015
From $3,650
We invite you to join us in western Colorado this summer on an exciting expedition designed for families to discover the world of paleontology in one of the richest dinosaur domains in the country. Travel back in time to the era when dinosaurs roamed the Colorado plateau on an adventure designed for you and your future scientists.
The Colorado Family Dinosaur Adventure is full of hands-on, active learning experiences for you, your children, and your grandchildren as you explore Western Colorado’s beautiful Grand Valley, a region teeming with dinosaur fossils. Dig side-by-side with scientists in a quarry where incredible discoveries have been made, including bones from eight species of dinosaurs. The field staff will guide you from prospecting to quarrying to preparation of fossils in the lab, with emphasis on both fun and learning. To round this Western experience, we also include a rafting trip on the Colorado River, hiking in the awe-inspiring Colorado National Monument, and horseback riding through a beautiful, secluded valley.
