Dinosaurs on the Colorado River

These magnificent rock formations feature majestic walls of red sandstone, assessable only by water. Museum paleontologists Joe Sertich and Ian Miller will navigate you down the Colorado River, cutting a path through the ancient home of dinosaurs that roamed Earth 65 million years ago. Your adventure will include fascinating geologic formations from the Jurassic and Cretaceous Periods that hold dinosaur footprints and fossils. The river is gentle with occasional small Class I+ rapids.
