Cleveland Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry

The quarry at Jurassic National Monument has produced more than 12,000 fossils from at least 74 animals, and more than three quarters of the bones come from predators such as Allosaurus. The visitor center has over 2,000 square feet of exhibits, including an Allosaurus skeleton mount and replica skulls, and trails head out from it. The dig site is closed for construction for now, and the last 11 miles of road are graded gravel with no drinking water on site.
